I've had a look at the 1881 for James using the wild card search "James Lid*". This throws up 56 individuals 23 of whom were married BUT no trace of Williamina.

There is one long shot, James Liddell and Minnie Liddell aged 25 and 23 respectively living in Govan ... please contact me by PM if you wish further information.

thanks Kym but it is definitely a williamina unless she is using s nick name? they should have at least to children Frances and Henrietta. if you have looked at the image and the children don't match it best we give this a miss as there is to many Jame's to look for, thanks for your trouble in searching for me.
 

              you have been a great help
