If you search on www.freebmd.org.uk you will find both his birth and marriage (and as it is a rare name you are unlikely to get it confused with similar names) (1940 & 1961)
James Stott c1775-1850. James was born in Yorkshire but where? He was a stonemason and married Elizabeth Archer (nee Nicholson) in 1794 at Ripon. They lived thereafter in Masham. If anyone has any suggestions or leads as to his birthplace I would be interested to know. I have searched for it for years without success. Thank you.

Rootschat has a no living persons policy and these people were born 1940 so may still be alive

No info can be posted about them and you will need to remove both names from your post to protect their privacy

There is a death for Clive Edward Kimmings, (birthdate 8th February 1940) in August 1984, Wandsworth.

It looks as though there was a second marriage in 1979, Croydon.

There was at least one child born to each marriage - perhaps you could make contact with them to get further information

You can find both marriages and both births on freebmd - www.freebmd.org.uk
