Hi Ron - Welcome to WikiTree
Easy fix - Go to Profile of James S -- then Edit -- Edit Mother (at bottom of this screen is an option to delete mother without adding a new mother) -- Once Deleted (Do a Refresh or Public View to make sure deletion took) then
Edit on James S and "add Spouse" -- Insert Profile ID for spouse (Sarah J) The ID is found in the middle of her profile screen - Orange Bar under Death Date). Press the "add" button.and you should be OK with her as spouse vs mother.

Open his profile (click on EDIT) In/on the upper right, find MOTHER and under that find Edit this parent, Click on that, Down at the bottom of the page, find Remove Mother without replacing her, click on that. You've done it.

You should be able to go to Sarah's profile & go to edit at the top of her profile.Click on it, now on the left you will see siblings, click on edit. The next screen you will see Remove sibling, click on it, Now make James the Husband of Sarah.
