Thanks for that, Jool, found it now and the 1939 Register entry in Birkenhead that clearly shows her birthdate as 22 April 1896.  But what if that date is a lie.

Margaret appears to be four years older than Roy, but what if it's actually more than that, say seven years.

Consider the death of Margaret Ogley in Birkenhead Jun 1966 v10a p42 age 74 which give a birth year of 1892.

This means the Connor/Gallagher marriage in 1886 is certainly a possibility and the birth of Margaret Connor Jun 1893 Liverpool v8b p134 mmn Gallagher would match a birthdate of 22 April 1893.

Thanks for all your information

Margaret Connor   born  1896, Liverpool, married my grandfather, Roy Hepworth, Ogley in Liverpool  Feb, 1921.

The comma in the wrong place in the OP's first post may have caused confusion.

This looks like the marriage.

Marriages Mar 1921. W.Derby 8b   552   
Conner    Margaret    Ogley      
Ogley    Roy H    Conner

Jool thank you from me to.....I'd been looking for the marriage entry and also was looking for her death as Margaret HEPWORTH  to check if there was a dob.

For info. Lancashire BMD has 1921 marriage at St Philip Litherland

Consider the death of Margaret Ogley in Birkenhead Jun 1966 v10a p42 age 74
which give a birth year of 1892.

Margaret Ogley of 3 Eltham Green Woodchurch Birkenhead died 8 May 1966 at St. Catherine’s Hospital Birkenhead. Probate 20 July to M Ogley spinster.
She would be their daughter born 1929 (mmn Connor)

Roy Hepworth Ogley of 2 Old Chester Road Birkenhead died 1 Oct 1958
Administration Chester 23 Jan to widow Margaret

family rumours she had a difficult childhood workhouse.

I don’t have access but F M P they have Liverpool Workhouse Registers

Don’t know if any of these records will relate to your Margaret Connor
there are a few entries for persons named Margaret Conner born c1888 (LWR year 1888), c1894 (LWR year 1899), c1891 (LWR year 1904)  & c1890 (LWR year 1902)

Ladyhawk, I also spent some time searching with the surname HEPWORTH.  Then it occurred to me, when I looked back at the original post, that I had never heard of an area in Liverpool called Ogley (google confirmed it).  The penny dropped
