Hi
Just came across this site/thread. I'm a grandson of Wilfrid Gibson (that's the correct spelling despite what the census says) and can confirm your records appear to be of his brother Thomas. Another of his brothers, Ernest, also emigrated to Australia and died in 1959. He's buried with his son, Ambrose William Joyce, and second wife, Florence in Wollongong.

Cheers

Carl
