Does anyone know of my Bush family?

John Bush, father to my ggggrandfather, George Bryant Bush and his siblings Sarah Bryant Bush and John Bryant Bush - possible that mother was Hannah Bryant and they were all born in Radstock, Somerset.

Somewhere along the way they moved on to Wales - where Arthur and Frank were born. Did these children all have Hannah Bryant as their mother.

According to marriage certificates we have in Australia - George Bryant Bush lists his parents as John Bush and Hannah Bryant, where Arthur Bush, lists his parents as John Bush and Anna Sims.

Are these 2 travelling companions who came to Australia in the early 1860's brothers, or were we just led to believe they were? Are they cousins? Can anyone help?

Can't find any records via internet after 1881 census that lists Anna Bush (71), John Bush (44) and Frank Bush (30). Does anyone know their wives or children's history - could they be my lot?

John has Ellen as his wife, while Frank has Jane - I'm at a total loss with this lot, any help greatly appreciated.

TIA
Lin (nee Bush)
