James Richard SCHOLES, Bendigo policeman, Vic Australia

[Aussiebead]

I am trying to trace the parents and siblings of James Richard SCHOLES (Tiger).  He was born in 1890 and died in Bendigo in 1963. Married to Ethel Mary SELLWOOD.
He was the mounted policeman in Bendigo, hence his nickname (Tiger).
Who were his parents, and their parents, and where did they originate?  Can anyone help me please :-
There is a line of SCHOLES from Carisbrook Vic but I can find no reference to James Richard SCHOLES listed in these names.
He was my husband's grandfather

He was born in 1890 and died in Bendigo in 1963. Married to Ethel Mary SELLWOOD.

About Ada Rosina BUXTON

James BUXTON and Eleanor Rosina HARWOOD had 13 births from 1864 to 1889 including Ada.
They were married
 
BUXTON James
HARWOOD Rosina Eleanor
Year 1863
Reg 47

Her birth in Lambeth

Births Jun1/4 1846   
HARWOOD Rosina Eleanor at Lambeth
4/291


She can be seen on the 1851 Census as a five year old with her Father William, a greengrocer born in  1824, and mother Eleanor Ann. Also there is her brother Edwin HARWOOD and 2 other relatives named MOODY aged 15 and 18.

William HARWOOD married Eleanor Ann

Marriages Sep1/4 1844   
 
MOODY Eleanor Ann at Lambeth
 4/236
(with William HARWOOD same page)

Sometime after the 1851 census and before the 1861 on which they do not appear, Eleanor Ann HARWOOD and her daughter Rosina Eleanor arrived in Australia. I think Edwin may have come too as there is a marriage registered in this name with the first child was William Edward HARWOOD)

ADDING It is probable father William also came to Australia, but I have not yet located information to definitely identify him here , so I remain unsure

Eleanor/Rosina died
