Re your Question, re William Alexander Bliss.
"is he the William Bliss aged 27 came Nov 1853 on the Sea Ranger"
His full name was William Alexander Read Bliss. And yes he did arrive in Melbourne, Victoria, Aust 1953. But not on the ship the Sea Ranger.
On his Application for Naturalization paper's 1876 & 1911, he has written that the ship's name was the British ship Countess of Elgin. And it was Feb not Nov.

William A.R.Bliss was my Great Grandfather. He Died on the 18 Jun 1919 in Moe, Vic. Aust. Regards

Hello Elizabeth,
My name is Deborah White and my great great grandfather was George Dixon Orwin who, with his brothers Thomas and Joseph & his mother, Ann (nee Green) and sister Elizabeth came to Australia on the barque Ebba Brahe in 1857.
George married Martha Cook and their first child was Mabel Eleanor, born 1866.
Grace Isabel Orwin (one of Mabels younger sisters) was my great grandmother. There is also another sibling, Robert Forrest Orwin born 1870. Most of George & Martha's children were born in the Melbourne area, not Taradale.
Would love to share more information if you are interested.
Regards
Deborah White
