id | number

Btw.: you should use referential integrity between this tables:
t=# \d member_number
Table "public.member_number"
Column | Type | Modifiers
--------+-------------------+-----------
id | integer |
number | character varying |
Foreign-key constraints:
"member_number_id_fkey" FOREIGN KEY (id) REFERENCES member(id)
Btw.: on your mail there was a odd attachment 'winmail.dat'
