Welcome to Rootschat

Unfortunately your post doesn’t really tell us anything so we don’t know what help you are looking for.

When & where was he born?  Was he already married when he emigrated or did he marry in Australia?

Exactly what information are you looking for?

I didn't understand it either.
Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.
