Tuckers from Australia

I'm looking for anyone connected to a couple of Tucker siblings who came from Ballarat, Australia around 1900.

George Hughes Tucker b 1874 came and worked in the Kimberly diamond mines and fought in the Boer War. He married and had some children. They went to the United States about 1908. They later divorced and she and the children reportedly returned home.

A sister Elizabeth Partridge Tucker b 1870 married John Sommerville Cameron b 1870 Creswick, VIC, in 1898 in Durban, Natal. There was a son Allan in 1899. They returned to AUS and had a daughter Nellie Redvers in 1900 and maybe a son Donald. They apparently returned to South Africa.

Another sister also came, probably Alice Maud Tucker b 1872 or maybe Lena May/Mary Tucker b 1886.

One of the sisters' husband apparently worked for the railroad.
