Here is a bit more info for you.
Your Bennett family arrived in Victoria on the "Annie Wilson" as unassisted passegers in November 1864. They are recorded as:
Edward - aged 29 years.
Mary A - aged 28 years.
Unnamed infant -
Sarah A - aged 3 years.
Edward - aged 5 years.
Ophelia - aged 7 years.
William - aged 9 years.
Source: Unassisted Passenger List To Victoria 1852-1923.
Port B, Fiche 238, Page 004.
I expect this will be the correct family.
Thanks for the information. I am just learning how to find immigration records, so thanks very much.
