Only birth registration I can see in GRO births index via FreeBMD for an Arthur Davison born 1861-1863, Co. Durham is:
Davison Arthur Q3 1863, Stockton 10a 34 , as Wolviston was in the Stockton Registration District it looks like the baptism I found is the right one - even though the vicar added in an extra 'd' to the surname.
If his Dad 'was' James and a shoemaker, then this looks like the family in 1871

Of course, if the marriage cert doesn't say his Dad is James, then its back to the drawing board :-) but I would suggest that if you don't have access to census info, go to your library and use their pcs to look at the 1911 census which indicates that the above census info 'is' correct.
Sorry, but we aren't allowed to post details of the 1911 or I could tell you why I think it confirms it :-)
