Karen, if you search the marriages on that website for Queensland BDM you'll find the marriages of Elsie Jane Dixon, Olive Alice Dixon, Eva Gertrude, and Percival Arnold Dixon.

Percival Arnold Dixon married a Beatrice May Willett in 1913, so that explains the Beatrice May Dixon on the Electoral Rolls.

Joseph Chapman Dixon does not appear to have been born in Queensland, but his wife was.   

Elizabeth Alice Fielding was baptised on 27th May 1850
Her parents were John Fielding and Jane.

I wonder if the following quote refers to this family.....

"The first selector at Flaxton was Joseph Dixon, from Buderim, who selected 800 acres, extending from the edge of Mapleton to what became known as Skene's Hill at Flaxton, Here he planted bananas and, in 1892, citrus trees."

It comes from
