BDM VIC marriage
1866 / 3926 FREUIN David John  marr. STEWART Hellen

The death certificate should ask for "years in the colony"....what do you see?

What names do you see for witnesses on the marriage certificate, 1866?

[stevengenresearch]

Marriage Witnesses are Mary & Henry Stewart (Helens Siblings)
25 years in Vic, From Liverpool England.

That death is a puzzle, as the birth year of c1810 would obviously make him too young to be the Thomas who married Elizabeth Hendy Cady in 1815.   

There's a photo of him available in the National Archives:

Descriptive note:
Thomas Frewin joined HM Customs in 1852, retired in 1886 and died in 1894

Looks like the Thomas in South Australia may just be a coincidence, or possibly more distantly related:
