I think the Cairns refers to Hugh and John may have thought they were married

Have you checked the possible death for Bridget?

Sancti and Moria,
Thank you so much for your help today. My eyes are so tired as I have been at this all day.
i am off for a glass of wine to clear my mind then sleep, resume tomorrow.
I just do not know how i cannot find any of them on neither Ancestry, Find my Past, Scotlands People.
I must be doing something wrong, i just cannot see the wood for the trees so to speak.
Again thank you both
Di

He may have believed that they were married and also got the Thomson and Duff names the wrong way round.

Mistakes certainly creep in and they make things more diffult when they do  :-\

However, with the info you and Sancti have found over the last recent posts, I do think you are now properly on the right trail for John  ::)

I don't think the family of Patrick Cairns and Bridget Duff is connected.  I think the 1881 census entry you found is really helpful.
