Walter Roberts born 1892 Tranmere, Birkenhead
Wife Elfrieda born 1901-possably U S A
Dolores Roberts born 1930-possably U S A
I think they were married in U S A and the child born in U S A
as there are no BMD records in UK
They travelled from Southampton to New York in 1935 & again in 1938.
Walter travelled from Southampton to New York again in 1948.
Would be really greatful if any one can help.

The last USA census that can be searched was in 1930.

Thanks for that advice, can you get BMD for USA as I can't find marriage in England or Birth of child which would have been in 1930

Sorry, Christopher, I don't know about USA BMDs but if you post a message on the Tips or Records board, I am sure somebody will know. Might be a good idea to post late in the day when the Americans come on line and will see the post. Also, stay around the board for a while in case anybody wants more info.
