Not sure if im right but i got an ancestry hint for william. Marrying a mary knows in 1866 in Adelaide making him roughly 26

His dad comes up as a George Lewis which would fit (was knows as william or george)

The informant on her death was a James Jarry who would have been janes son in law.
One of Jane snr's grandaughters was married to John Jarry so he would have been grandson in law and not son in law. More reason there could be errors here and there on Jane snr's death certificate as he would have only given what info he was aware of.
