"...All I know is she gave birth to her son in Newton, near Sydney in September 1889 and was 22 years old".

What is your source for this information...........without which there is no reason to look for Meta being in NSW in 1889.........or any time before 1918?

She had a brother Louis Patrick BOYD b. 1865, Ireland and died in NSW in 1922.

Whether they went out together, I don't know.

After the birth,  Newtown, 1889, when and where do you next see Margaret BOYD and / or son Charles BOYD?.
