Thanks Kay, I only have the image from S.People  with marriage details to go on so could be right.
Looking at it again i see that James is on that a Widower' so must have been previous marriage.

Found family trees on Anc that suggest his first wife was Barbara McKenzie B 1877 and died 15 Oct 1938 Kintore, Aberdeenshire.  They married 4 Nov 1897 at  Kemnay, Aberdeenshire.  On the marriage cert James was a labourer at a distillery and Barbara was a domestic servant.
