I assume you've got this far from censuses?  These will also tell you where James and Margaret were born.  You will also have Margaret's maiden name from Arthur's birth certificate (if you've actually found it).  You would then be looking for their marriage.  But with a name like James Smith you've got a tough job on.
Godden in East Sussex, mainly Hastings area.
Richards in Lea, Gloucestershire, then London.
Williamson in Leith, Vickers in Nottingham.
Webb in Bildeston and Colchester.
Wesbroom in Kirby le Soken.
Ellington in Harwich.
Park, Palmer, Segar and Peartree in Kersey.
