Thank you for correcting me on John's birth and death.  I've downloaded the certificate from SP and I did have the wrong one!

Just checked Niel Ferguson's war record.  He was based down in Canterbury until some time in 1873.  Frederick was born in the Apr-Jun quarter.  NF is listed as arriving in Meerat 7.1.74.  Family search have the baby listed as Neil Frederick and NF refers to his children on the headstone.  It may be that he adopted him when he married Rose Anna but I think it is likely that he was the father.
