Just an update on this couple.  Annie Meaden did not marry William McLure Murray.  Her husband was actually William MCLEAN Murray.  Unfortunately, a lot of researchers also got this couple wrong, and a few of them have yet to change their research in their online trees.  both Williams lived in Merseyside, so there has been confusion between these 2 men in the past.

William McLean Murray was born on March 25, 1906, the son of Maria and Alexander. He married Annie Meaden on April 12, 1929, in Liverpool, Lancashire, England. They had seven children in 15 years. He died in September 1984 at the age of 78.  Annie Meaden was born on October 22, 1909

That’s good that you have sorted the puzzle.
William died in St Helens in 1984.
