Are you looking for information on her after she arrived in Australia or the family in Ireland.

If it is in Australia could we have your G'Mothers name
Robyn
Walton (Huntingdonshire and NSW OZ)
Wilson (Sussex)
Hicks (Kent, Sussex, Surrey)

I was checking the NSW (Sydney) BDMs and could not find the marriage you have mentioned. I did find two marriages for a Mary Droney
837/1866  CANHAM  JOHN  DRONEY  MARY  SYDNEY 
5446/1894  HANNON  EDWARD  DRONEY  MARY 

There are 2 children born 1902,04 in NSW to a Charles Wells and Mary.

I also checked the AVRI (covers NSW,VIC,WA and Tas to about 1900) and could not find a marriage for Charles and Mary Droney.

You can check NSW records at
