Maybe someone with access to Tasmanian BMDs can find more.   

Have you searched trove newspapers for any mention of them?

I note post from Raylen:
Do you know what happened to Hannah Isaacs born c1829?
Is she the Rachael Isaacs who married Morris Cohen?
I see in the family notices on http://trove.nla.gov.au that she is named as
Raie Cohen.
I have tried to find a death for her but nothing found so far

My name is Colin Morris Nicoll.  I am curious in searching out some more information on my family. I have just started and came across this entry.  I don't know if anyone can shed any light on the information I have below:
Rachel Isaacs and Morris Cohen married in Ballarat, Victoria on the 7th of June 1868 at the residence of the bride, Barkley Street, Ballarat East.  They had 9 children.  The youngest child Annie Cohen, was born 22nd December 1888 27 Moor Street, South Fitzroy, Victoria. Annie Cohen married David Nicoll in Blenheim, NZ in 1925.  They had one son Morris Nicoll, born in Napier, NZ 1928.  Morris Nicoll is my father.  Annie Cohen died approx 1936.  I am trying to seek more information on Annie Cohen, her siblings, anything at all.  I am not sure when she left Australia to NZ. 
Thank you for your time in reading this!

Hello Colin.
Welcome to RootsChat.   

You mention that Rachel ISAACS and Morris COHEN had nine children, with Annie being the youngest.
Do you have the details of all the births? Their deaths or marriages? If not, we may be able to find some of them.
It seems that there was another child born after Annie.
