Hi Mcvicars
You can have a good search on the NSW BDM online website.
Once you have the registration numbers for your events, you can order your certificates or hire an agent to assist with transcription.
http://www.bdm.nsw.gov.au/cgi-bin/Index/IndexingOrder.cgi/search?event=births
There is not much useful census material available in Aust.
We use instead electora lroll and bmd and immigration data extensively.
Perhaps you should look at the RESOURCES at the top of the Aust. board.
A lot of helpful links there.

there are 8 children from 1877 to 1894 born to James Craig and Cecelia and variations of the name including a James who could be the one married in 1903.
It is possible that James and his wife were married overseas or another state
a copy of Thomas henry Craig birth certificate shoud tell you where and when his parents were born and married

there are a number of Craig deaths here including Cecelia and her daughter Isabella and one James.

The State Record Office of NSW show
James and Cecelia CRAIG and infant arriving in 1876 on the Star of India.
http://mariners.records.nsw.gov.au/1876/06/068sta.htm
you will see them on the ship manifest on page 4 looks like the young infant Charles Craig died in Port Jackson.
