Ted he married as a RUSSELL in 1877 and the births to he and ELiza Jane BIDDLE are RUSSELL.

Perhaps the OP can tell us what information she has.

WOW!  Thanks to everyone that replied to my post, I retrieved the death certificate on line for William Russell and was very surprised to find that he was actually born in Kilmore, Vic, by the name of "William James Glue" and his alias was Russell.  His father was George Glue, mother Christina Kenny (Nee Leaird).  George along with his brother Joseph were transported together to New South Wales on the ship ""Hooghley" on 25th July 1834.
It would seem at some time William moved to Tasmania, because it was here he married Eliza Biddle.
Also I found William's burial, he is buried with his mother Christina Kenny, from this it appears his parents were not married.
More searching to be done, but thanks to all at Rootschat the dead end has been removed.  Thank you so much.
Judy

Why do you think his parents' were not married?

Incidentally George GLUE's SA death cert will have very little info other than what is on the index.  I wouldn't waste my dollars buying it :)

William's birth in Victoria :
William James GLUE b 1855 Kilmore  George GLUE and Ctine LEAIRD #

Info reply#10 ;)

The surname is LAIRD on the KENNY births.

The KENNY/GLUE marriage cert would give you more info about Christine/a
