thank you for typing that up. 

So they married at the local registrar's office.  That rules out my thoughts of getting to a C of E family sheet.   I will pull my thinking cap down harder.

If Emma's age and place of birth is accurate, perhaps the following is her birth

https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:XTXF-Z78

Female  FREEMAN 28 Feb 1856  Tasmania   
Father  Joseph Freeman     
Mother  Jane Stewart   

This would support her being a spinster.

South Australian birth… 5 October 1877, Archibald Percy WILSON,
Father as Edward Anderson WILSON
Mother as Emma Agnes FREEMAN
District: Adelaide
Reg 190/136


I have a very poor copy of this certificate and it appears to say the mother is Emma Agnes Wilson formerly Freeman.  The father's occupation on this is 'editor of a newspaper'.
Amy was born in Melbourne, George Frederick believed he was also born in Adelaide in 1879, but I cannot find a record of his birth or baptism.

I also have this article from Trove, which has rather a lot of information, but based on what people believe they knew about him.
https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/230635543?searchTerm=death%20of%20Mr%20e%20a%20wilson&searchLimits=

I believe that is Emma's baptism, even though it doesn't have her name on it.  It seems to match up with similar records for her siblings.

Sands 1895 Sydney Alpha Directory
WILSON, E.A. secretary Associated Pony and Galloway Racing Clubs, 189 Pitt Street
WILSON, Mrs. E.A, 23 Railway Street, Petersham.   

 :)  :)  :) That's likely them at home at Petersham, and his workplace in the city.

  George Frederick believed he was also born in Adelaide in 1879, but I cannot find a record of his birth or baptism.

  .

George Frederick died in 1956.
He was married to Eleanor Mary O'DWYER late in life.

Do you have a death notice or certificate which would give you the age of George Frederick at death?
The Ryerson Index does not give his age.

His marriage in 1950 would clarify.

Sue

PS.
Glad to see the marital status of Emma Agnes is a resolved issue ;D

George's first marriage to Rose Davies 25/11/1901 says birthplace Adelaide and age 22.
George's second marriage to Eleanor Mary O'Dwyer 12/12/1950, he says hes 71.
