Can some kind person help me?   The SS Great Britain  Voyage No. 42 left Liverpool UK 4th June 1874 with 601 passengers including a John Campbell  Adult and his Son John Campbell aged 11 years arriving Melbourne Australia 30th July 1874.  Looking for more information which may help with John Seniors age, address, occupation or other details.
Kind regards

From the Public Record Office of Victoria the transcribed passenger list for Great Britain July 1874 lists Mr John Campbell A (Adult) and John Campbell 11. The original lists are very degraded and it was hard to decipher amongst the 601 passengers.
So not much help I'm afraid.

This is the John aged 11 with what is probably his mother and siblings...

This is the adult John with his wife and children...

These two Johns were not travelling together.
