Great stuff
Thank you very much!

Certainly ties in now with my dna being matched in Queensland, albeit very distantly!

1921, both just give "Aramac' as place of residence - both labourers

1925
John Henry at Aramac -not seeing John William
John Henry has another entry in 1925 at Moorlands, Queensland (Not unusual two have two entries if a person moved and hadn't been struck off the first roll)

Hanes Telu gives the son's arrival as:
J H Cuer, age 20, Farm Labourer, sailed 21 Dec 1912 from London aboard the Limerick.

Seems that the son arrived first as there's this arrival for John William:
Ship: Marathon, departed London 4 Dec, 1913, bound for Brisbane
Mr John Cuer, market gardener, aged 54; ticketed to Brisbane
The Marathon arrived in Brisbane 26 January 1914
