Doesn't help us find Harold though.

Ah! On the image Harold is with her, he just hasn't been transcribed. He's a Pipe Sawyer DOB 19 September 1916

This looks like Harold's death, so they must have divorced

Deaths Jun 1980 (73%)
COTTERILL HAROLD 19SE1916 HALTON 35 619

Either of these could be Harold's birth. His marriage certificate would provide his father's name.

Births Sep 1916 (>99%)
Cotterill Harold Burgess Wolstanton 6b 122

Births Dec 1916 (>99%)
Cotterill Harold Peake Prescot 8b 1191

Guessing, there's a fair chance it's the second one as this looks like the mother and siblings of the second one living in Widnes in 1939. You would still need the marriage certificate to confirm his father's name.
