Where are you seeing this information?

reply #1       "he lived in..........Victoria for 13 years"

reply #4      "a very old resident of Emerald named Mr. J O'Brien aged 70"

Assuming this refers to length of residency, not age.......would you be a very old resident after 13 years?

"Robert married Janet Faulds in 1843 in Barony, Glasgow "

Do you see this family in the 1851 Census?.  Can you give the names ages, birthplaces and address of the 1851 Census entry.

Do you see this family in the 1871 Census?.  Can you give the names ages, birthplaces and address of the 1871 Census entry.

You have a birth record for Agnes, daughter of Robert FULTON and Janet, 1855?
Can you list all the information on this document please....everything on the document please.

 You have women using multiple family names which makes it difficult to identify and locate the people you are naming here.

 Can you expand on some of the information that you are giving the forum -

 *  "The mother was Mary Jane Magnar, who emigrated to Australia from Ireland as a 17 year old orphan in 1849" 

Where do you see this information...age...birthplace....year of arrival   what is your source?

* "The mother was Mary Jane Magnar......that is based on her death cert"
You have a death certificate for Mary Jane senior who arrived in 1849?
How is she named on her death certificate?

* "children (one was Richard's, born after he had died, two others by a new partner) but all died within a short time from birth, and her neglect was blamed for one death. Her mental and physical health deteriorated and she died in an insane asylum in 1882".

Can you name these children please.   

* "Her daughter Mary Jane was placed in an Industrial School aged about 12, and upon completion, assigned to a family in western Victoria"

Under what family name is Mary Jane, born ~1853, admitted into the industrial school?

* In 1896 & 1897 Annie (Harrison) had two children with the surname Harrison and "Roechner" included in their names."

I see this birth in VIV BDM index -
HARRISON Arth Roechner  ps   Annie HARRISON / -                        Stawell     22896/1897

What details...name...birth date and place...do you have for second use of the ROECHNER name?

What certificates do you have for the BDM events in the lives of the people you are naming?

Index and newspapers are useful up to a point. Then you need documentation.
