I see a likely death for Catherine Cairns. 1883 in Sorbie, aged 31. Mothers maiden name is Cook which fits with the information on the 1874 marriage. GROS 897/16. That certificate should tell you whether James was still alive in 1883. If he was, perhaps he re-married? Search for that.

When were James & Cathrine born?

Who were the children?  Any born before 1881 so we can look for them there?

Thanks.
