Thanks Signal Hill and John B.

The Victoria Outwards Passenger lists has Miss Cantle as 21 which is close enough to be her.

Victoria Outwards also has a T MARLOW age 28 in 1863 to Otago Port Chalmers, on the Alhambra, but not sure if that is him as there is a Thomas G MARLOW age 25 arriving in Melbourne on the Winefred in Apr 1864.

Mr Marlow a passenger on the Hero ss from Melbourne to Otago arr 16 March 1865 ?

I have transcribed a very dodgy passenger List for the Hero (also Geelong).   PapersPast could not identify the vessel at all in its OCR.

I cannot satisfactorily reconcile this with the PROV record and none of the total passengers add up either
