Hello raa.
John James Tickell had siblings in Melbourne.

Perhaps you have this information. Not much help with John James :)

An inquest was held into the death of one John TICKELL   1855. Likely the father of John James. A widower with 3 young children much addicted to drink which ultimately caused his death. Aged 45 years, At Melbourne

Is this the death of Edward born 1846?

This may or may not be the woman who married John TICKELL

A search of Trove will return reports of her doings in Melbourne. But nothing I can see before 1871.

Downloading the marriage certificate would help you.

Here's what I could confirm about John James Tickell and Jessie Melvin: John was born 25 Nov 1849 on Spring Street, Melbourne, to John and Isabella Tickell. He married Jessie Melvin in 1871 in Collingwood (Reg. No. 00996). No children were found in Victoria’s birth records, and neither John nor Jessie has a confirmed death record in the state—suggesting they may have moved interstate (e.g., WA) or to New Zealand. No remarriage record found for Jessie either.
