You're too modest!
I've searched and searched for passenger lists but nothing shows up
Maybe the date of immigration is too late to show on the lists at Ancestry?

It was a stroke of luck finding that, Gins!
I'll send Jenny a quick pm in case she's unaware of the information left for her.

Morton's immigration papers are on National Archives of Australia.
There are 10 pages in total, won't post all the details as the children are quite likely still living. Here's a link to the record, there are 10 pages in total:

EDIT: To be precise, it's a copy of his application for assisted immigration - loads of info on there, his addresses, his jobs, he was in the RAF, etc etc
