Family confusion, James Sanders,Toronto

[NooshieW]

Hi,
Bare with me. My relative James Sanders emigrated to Toronto and married Edith Brown in 1907. They had one son James William around 1912. They are all on the 1921 census.
This is where I get lost. I have been contacted by a ‘cousin’ but I am not sure the lineage is correct. I have James William Alexander Sanders b1912/14 as the son of James and Edith, but this may be wrong. They certainly had a son , James W living with them in 1949 ,so he can’t be the same James William that this ‘cousin’has, as his relative married twice and had a son, another James in 1943.The cousin also has an obituary for James W that doesn’t tally with the age or date that I have.
My question is , who is the son of James and Edith and did that son ever marry? I know there is a hundred year rule, so I maybe won’t get much info.
Sorry if it’s confusing.

This is the same address shown on the 1949 Canada Voters Entry - with James Snr, Edith, and James W Sanders. Jnr.
The same as on the marriage document for James to Dorothy Clarke.
