Is it true that Scottish pharmacologist Sir James Black developed propranolol, the first clinically useful beta-blocker, and cimetidine, the first selective H2-receptor antagonist?

Yes. A reference biography states that Sir James Black developed propranolol, a beta blocker, and cimetidine, an H2 receptor antagonist, and a peer-reviewed history calls propranolol the first clinically useful beta-receptor blocker. Another reference calls cimetidine the first clinically successful H2 antagonist.
