While still young he went to live with an uncle who farmed Gairloch, eight miles from Kirriemuir. He was educated at Webster's Seminary in Kirriemuir.
When of working age James served as a grocer's apprentice in Blairgowrie. He later was appointed manager of the Cooperative Society of Coupar-Angus, a grocer's co-op, and two years later he became first assistant to the high class grocery establishment of Messrs Scott, Perth.
James moved to Arbroath in about 1867 and became an assistant to Mr. Mill who ran a grocery in Guthrie Port at the corner of Reform Street. After Mr. Mill's death he went into business alone at 67 Guthrie Port. In 1874 his residence was at 62 Unia Street, Arbroath.
In 1881 James was a master grocer living in St. Vigeans. About that time he added the adjoining buildings to his thriving business. He serviced Arbroath and the surrounding countryside with delivery in three vans and a motor car. In business James displayed the characteristic shrewdness of the cautious Scotsman, which, with his unrelaxing diligence, procured for him a very considerable measure of success. In 1891 James lived in at 34 Ogilvy Place, Arbroath, conducting a wholesale and retail grocery at 73 and 75 Guthrie Port. In 1895 and 1900 he lived at 32 Ogilvy Place.

James was also an ardent golfer and was an original member of the Arbroath Club.
In social and business relations James was a very estimable and energetic personality. His free, affable manner, pawky humor, candid unpretentious and unsophisticated conversation made him a pleasant companion.
James died 19 June 1917 at his residence, 32 Ogilvy Place, Arbroath. He had been confined to bed for a week with a chill, which developed into pneumonia. An extract of his testament reads: James Doig, Grocer and Wine and Spirit Merchant, 32 Ogilvy Place, Arbroath, died 19 June 1917, at Arbroath, testate.
