Go to : http://www.familysearch.org/Eng/Search/frameset_search.asp?PAGE=search_all1.asp&clear_form=true Someone has posted a family tree there. It has Priscilla Adelaide Phillips born Nov. 13, 1859 Wombat, Victoria, Australia died 1893 Rochester, Victoria, Australis married John Kilgour 1880 Victoria, Australia (says John, not James - could James have had first or middle name John?) John - born 1854, Melbourne Father: John born 1820 Edinburgh Scotland married 1853 Melbourne to: Cecelia Brown Hyne - born 1824 Edinburgh So, if this person is right John born 1820 would be the immigrant to Aust. This page shows the children of John and Pricsilla and they mostly match with names you gave. http://www.familysearch.org/Eng/Search/frameset_search.asp?PAGE=search_all1.asp&clear_form=true This next page shows birth date and paretns of Cecelia Brown Hyne http://www.familysearch.org/Eng/Search/frameset_search.asp?PAGE=search_all1.asp&clear_form=true all of the above pages are from familysearch.org It is a free site to search I was trying to find parents of John (James?) Kilgour for you. Also, to see if he was shown born anywhere else as I have found family trees posted are not always correct. My guess is that he or his father/grandfather would have come from Fife as that is where most Kilgours originated.
