I notice in another forum you have said that Wm & Ellen were married and arrived with Frank. This is not the case - they were his siblings, as above. The Wm you mention is this one, and he arrived prior to this to South Australia (not Qld):
WEAKLEY William Rooke arrived 1850-10-29 on Abberton from Plymouth 07-26.
He and Emily Hales DUNCAN were having children in Sth Aust 1860-1882.
And here is Edwin, perhaps a cousin?
