Do you know when/if she came to Australia? when she married? this will help when someone tries to find her on any census entries and save them trying to find her when she has already arrived in Aus.
Or are you looking for her in Australia?

Hello David.
I can't read the marriage certificate even when I use magnify (just makes it more blurry) On a certificate for a second marrriage it should give Louisa's surname from her first marriage and her maiden name.
Where did she marry for the first time? In Australia?England? Who was her first husband?
I found this 1851 census which fits the details you gave.
HO107 Piece 1665 Folio 453 Page 11
High Street Yarmouth
John Brown 37 Mariner born Cowes Isle of Wight
Jane Brown 39 wife straw bonnet maker Freshwater IOW
Mary Jane Brown 12 Freshwater
Louisa Ann Brown 10 Yarmouth IOW
Juliana Brown 8 Yarmouth
Leonara Brown 5 Yarmouth
Henry John Brown 2 Yarmouth
Umm I don't think this can be your family because according to trees on ancestry Louisa's mother is Jane Sargeant not Jane Griffith's. Where did you get Jane's maiden name from?Sometimes paranoia is just having all the facts.

Hello David
I amnot at all savvy about enlarging images. One of our members may be able to help but meanwhile I have gone in to the BG boiler room to see if our techies can help.
For now how about just typing out everything it says in each column? That will give us something to start working with.
