Hi there, just saw this post.  Sadly I haven't been able to find anything about James (your Williams brother) beyond the marriage certificate...which doesn't give his middle name or his actual date of birth.  The father George was a farmer on Bluebog Farm...and I just found an old 1800's map that shows that Bluebog farm!  We're headed over for a visit in 2019 and I thought it would be cool to visit the farm, or at least where it was, since there were quite a few generations listed associated with it.  I also found an old 1800's newspaper 'estate sale' notification which listed the estate and all the farms attached (Bluebog was one of them).

It still exists, now named Bluebog of Auchiries.
