There also appears to be a record of her arriving in New York on 31/5/1955:

the address she was making for was 201 East 71st St, New York.
On her arrival on 11/9/1956 she was heading for 317 Prospect Ave, Lanaroneck, NY:

Arrival Date: 11 Sep 1956
Ethnicity/Race/Nationality: British (English)
Place of Origin: Britain
Port of Departure: Southampton
Port of Arrival: New York, New York

The New York passenger lists on Ancestry only show details up to 1957 so no details of her later arrivals are shown.
Presumably this is her family in 1911:

It may be coincidence but there is evidence of a Florence Clarke b1895 Liverpool and an Elsie Clarke c1903 Liverpool, Last UK residence Wallasey travelling to New York in 1930. Florence had been to NY previously in 1928. May be they were Marguerita's sisters.

Thank you for your help Jonesey
The information you have provided is great I have Marguerita living at the Broughton Road address on the marriage certificate so definately her sisters traveling on the voyages you found.
Florence also travelled in 1949 she is shown as a U.S citizen the address she leaves the UK from is correct The Grove Wallasey which is where my father grew up. Would it be possible to find the address she was travelling to?
