I'm sorry with the name of my Great Uncle, it was David not James. There is a Marker in Ballywillan Cemetery to the Victims of the Wreck.
On a side note, the Cemetery dates back to the 16th Century. And there is a Memorial Monument outside in Life Boat Service HQ in Portrush.
Thank-You All for your Help
