Dear Bronwyn,
I see you found Charles' parents !
Charles John Nelis died 1911 aged 84 in Geelong. This would put his birth circa 1827. It also makes him quite a bit older than his wife !
Anne Nelis (nee Finnegan) died 1927 aged 88 in Geelong. She was the daughter of Patrick Finnegan and Bridgit McCaie.
Susan McGuigan died in 1870 aged 71, with her birthplace listed as Tyrone, Ireland. She was the daughter of Roger McGuigan and Mary Davlin.
Although the ages do not quite match (and seldom ever do),
on board the "Great Australia" in January 1864 there was the following:
NELIS - Susan 55, Charles 28 and Louisa 6
I think it is still a good possibility for a match.
Hope this helps,
Regards,
Michelle.
