On the 3rd September 1938 Joseph Goulbourne married Margaret Higginson in .Crosby, Liverpool area. They had a daughter Margaret Grace in 1940 but I don't know who their other children were. I think they had two boys as well as Margaret.

I wondered if it would be possible for someone to look records up on my behalf as I can't find any trace of them.
Hope I've put this in the right section.
Many thanks

RG- I think the 1939 posted by PH is correct.

The Margaret that you posted in Windsor Road is with a Thomas Goulbourne- so not our Margaret.

The 3 sons are correct thank you but not sure if the Joseph born 11/1911 and his wife Alice are relatives as I don't know who the parents are as yet of my Joseph Goulbourne and his wife Margaret Higginson

Slightly confused as to the birth day of Margaret Higginson as on the 1939 register listed as 12/04/1911 but on death registered as 13/04/1914

The 1939 Register that Rootgatherer posted is incorrect.

On the image.........the Margaret Gouldbourne living in Crosby, is actally Nancy Gouldbourne.

Your Joseph and Margaret were been mis-transcribed as Foulbourne
