From the image on Ancestry, they had been living in the same house (812 Neff Road) since before 1 April 1935.

William was a gardener for a private family; Elizabeth was a stenographer for a sign company.

I don't know if this is the right family or not - no DOB's, and a year out from what the census says. Unfortunately they're not uncommon names:

Just in case that's the right Peter above, here's the valuation roll record for 1925, for 1 Ivanhoe Road -

And possibly re Janet & children of 30 Miller Street as stated on travel record -


MACINNES
WILLIAM
Tenant Occupier
HOUSE 28 MILLER STREET WISHAW
CAMBUSNETHAN

There's no William McInnes/MacInnes in Wishaw in 1930.

ArgyllGran Report 31 Dec 2017 16:07

Again, please note that I have absolutely no idea if this is correct or not.

But here's a William McInnes of the right age, in Wishaw, with father David, and young brother Peter of approx. the right age:


William Mcinnes

This is the only marriage showing on SP for a William McInnes / MacInnes to a Janet in Lanarkshire 1913-23:

MCINNES
WILLIAM
KELLY
JANET
1920

And when looking at the 1830 USA census, Ancestry suggests that Janet's ms was Kelly.



And this appears to be Elizabeth's marriage record:
