Hi Izzy

I found the following rossini's on the National Archives - website.  They were born in Glasgow, Scotland so therefore maybe connected with your family.

WW1 - enlisted 1916
John Lawson Rossini - age 25 - electrician
Antonio Rossini - age 28 - Fitter
Mother aroline Rossini is listed as their next of kin.  Her address was Elizabeth Street, Toowong, Brisbane QLD

WW1 - enlisted 1917
Charles Rossini - age 34 - Shop Assistant
Wife Agnes is listed as next of kin.  Address given as "Dundrennan" Gerler Street, Rosalie, Brisbane QLD

You can request for their records to be digitised and placed online.
http://www.naa.gov.au/the_collection/recordsearch.html

Also familysearch - has a birth record for Martha Abercrombie ROSSINI born: 4th November 1860 Calton Glasgow lanark Parents: Phillip ROSSINI & Elizabeth JOHNSTON

In the 1881 census FHL 0203640    Ref  Vol 644-3  Page 19
Martha is living at 49 McIntosh Street, Barony, Lanark with her father Phillip and stepmother Julia.  Julia's children Alex, Julia and James McNEIL.
