Marriage of James Shand and Jane Livingston(e)

Question

Looking for James Shand b. 1820 Scotland, (Aberdeen?) Jane Livingston(e) b. 1821 Scotland. James was a blacksmith. They had a son John G. Shand c. 1847-1849 in Scotland. James and Jane immigrated to New Brunswick, NJ sometime before 1860 and lived there until their deaths, James in 1901 and Jane in 1907.  I believe that James (my 2nd ggfather) is listed in the 1841 Scottish census living on Chael Street in Old Machar as an apprentice blacksmith.  Any info on their families, marriage date, John's birth or locations, would be greatly appreciated.
