Yes that's sound like a possibility that the father did die and the mother and youngest came to Australia!
Also being a Bricklayer is also a possibility he died while on the road.
You are getting a wee bit closer I feel.

Thanks,

Fran ;D

Thought I may as well post this
1861 RG9/2034/60/11
High Street Wednesbury registration district W Bromwhich (could be an area to look for William's death)
William Wilson 28 bricklayer
Jane 21
Corrin 7
William E 5
Maryann 2 Bushbury Staffordshire

All others born Sedgley

The birth reg for Corrin says Carmi Hill but I wonder if it is a mistranscription?

I also think Mary Ann may have died between 1861 and 1871 census. There are a coupl;e on FreeBMD that could be her. I can't find her in 1871.

None of this is helping with their entry to Oz but is giving you some background.

May I ask if you have Jane's d.c. please?

Have you looked through Trove digitised newspapers for either of them?  http://trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/home

Hi,

I can find 213 different chaps named John WILSON enrolled to vote in NSW in 1913.  Any idea of your chap’s possible location, perhaps a wife, and his occupation just before WWI ? 

I can find 47 different Jane Wilson lasses on those 1913 Electoral Rolls.

I also have some NSW Electoral Rolls for 1903 (females enrolled for first time), but these are hardcopy and not just by electorate, but also by polling place....  So I need more info to help locate Jane and her son in NSW IF you do not already have that info.

Also, I think there's passenger arrivals to NSW on various resources at the State Library of Victoria, and also in various holdings of family history groups throughout Victoria.

Cheers,  JM

This is William E (or C or A depending which census looking at!)
Marriages on same page
Dec 1/4 1877    
Eliza Jane  Bennett  and William Wilson W. Bromwich vol 6b page 1058  

I know william married an Eliza jane because I found him on the census in 1881.
I also found Carmi. He married an Eliza also.

I don't know whether you want these census records or not?

I am going to have to leave it for a while - domesticity calls.
