IF the informant of his death knew his history his death certificate should state marriages such as who to and when and his children.

It was 1950 when his wife Margaret divorced him (not 1960), so if he married again it was most likely to be between 1950 and 1960.  Do you know if he definitely remarried?  I can't find any second marriage or death for him but he might have died after 1993 when online records currently stop.  Do you know when and where he died?  If so a death certificate would give you the information you are looking for i.e. second marriage, children etc. 

His WW2 record says he was born in 1915 in Mingenew WA and married Margaret Thelma in 1943, but that is all I can find relating to his birth and first marriage.  Did you locate birth and marriage records for these events?
