In 1916, he married Doris Sprang, daughter of Fred Sprang, senior partner in C.E. Heinke & Co, manufacturers of diving suits & hard hats. On their return they bought the first decompression chamber for Broome, which Fred Sprang had donated on behalf of the company. Louis Goldie successfully pearled in Broome, and was a member of the Road Board 1928-1939. Doris and their three children lived in England for several years in the 1930s, before returning to Western Australia where the children attended boarding school in Perth.
