Denise, Vic Pioneers show two marriages for name of John Gemmell first to Elizabeth Rolls in 1858 Reg No 859 second to Annie Bain in 1859 Reg No 2170 No issue for the first marriage. At least 10 for the other with a number being born after 1865. Would appear neither refer to your man.

Thanks Paul. John Snr died in 1865 so this well could have been John Jnr with all the kids after 1865.
