Biography

1862     ordained minister of the Church of Scotland

1879 - 1891     lecturer at St. Mary's Hospital in London

His name is sometimes also given as James Mascall Crombie. Apparently he published on lichens quite a bit before his big book, but that's the only citation that I have for him.
