After visiting the website http://www.geocities.com/shmuelbennachum/index.htm
I contacted Saul Marks (saulmarks@hotmail.com) and asked if he had any information on Aaron and Hannah from the burial records. He replied:-
Dear Dave,
Thanks for your e-mail. I'm pleased to say there are 7 interments under the surname of Abraham in my register (last updated 7 May), including your 3 ancestors.
Aaron Abraham is buried in plot number 185A in Row 6, having died on 11 Jan
1865 & been buried two days later. His tombstone gives his age as either 60 or 70 (there's a blade of grass in the way!), but his age in other sources is given as 61. His parents were Levi & Miriam. His stone bears a long & highly legible English inscription in the Sam Lipson photo collection.
Hannah Abraham is buried next to Aaron, in plot 184A, having died on 6 Oct
1862 & been buried the following day, aged 74 years, 6 months. Her parents were Michael & Sarah Nathan. Her stone bears a similar inscription to Aaron's.
Nancy Abraham is buried in plot number 764A in Row 27, having died on 1 Jun
1901 & been buried two days later. Her stone is also in the Sam Lipson photo collection, though the inscription is much shorter and slightly less clear.
Thank you very much for the biiographical information on Aaron & his family.
The Eliza Jackson Home was a home for elderly or infirm Jewish spinsters & widows, & you can read a little of its history in my biography of James Braham on the Deane Road website.
You might be interested to know that a working party will be going into the cemetery on 8 June to try & clear the fly-tipped refuse. If you live in the area, perhaps you'd be interested in joining us? I have the keys to the cemetery & would be happy to take you to your ancestors' graves.
Hope this helps,
Saul.

Children:-
We appear to have a slight discrepancy:-
We have birth certificates for Sarah Ann and Philip
On these certificates it says how many children alive and dead
In 1862 when Sarah Ann is born we are told that
Lawrence Samuel is alive
2 other children have died
In 1868 when Philip is born we are told that
Lawrence is still alive, now aged 7
Sarah Ann has died
Simeon is dead
David is alive aged 3
If we assume that Simeon died before Sarah Ann was born that still leaves 1 dead child to account for at the time of Sarah Ann's birth. | Family: F271

From Gerry Newnham (email 16-Jul-2010)
He also doesn't appear on the 1851 database as he was in Ohio/Kentucky at the time, where he married Ellen Silverstone.
However no documentation of the marriage has been found - yet!
In any case the Cincinnati records were destroyed in a fire
around 1870 and although the records have been reconstructed Henry was back in England by then so probably wasn't aware that the authorities were asking people to re-register.

From Jenny & Katrina Cowen:
"These Are the Names Jewish Lives in Australia 1788-1850” published by The Miegunyah Presss in 2006":
The following is a direct quote:-
“SOLOMON, Abraham Jacob
b. London, 1826-1889
Constant, 1849; Free
Married: Dealer, minister: 14 children
Abraham Jacob Solomon was the grandson of the “world renowned matzah baker” of London of the same name. On 4 July 1849 the 23-year-old Abraham Jacob Solomon of Cutler Street, Aldgate, married Julia Isaacs (Solomon, q.v) of Harrow Alley, Aldgate, in the New Synagogue in London. Chief Rabbi Adler officiated. They arrived, travelling steerage, in Adelaide on the barque Constant on 23 December 1849. The small Adelaide congregation quickly appointed him as the Reader for a salary of 52 pounds a year. Solomon conducted the consecration of the new synagogue building on 5 September 1850. An economic depression in South Australia brought the congregation’s agreement to pay Solomon to an abrupt end. There were fewer than 150 Jews in South Australia, and Solomon offered to continue as synagogue reader in an honorary capacity.
In June 1852 Solomon was appointed Reader at the Melbourne Hebrew Congregation for six months, and then returned to Adelaide. On 22 October 1853 he wrote to the Adelaide Hebrew Congregation: “Being compelled through unforeseen circumstances to leave for Melbourne Port Phillip I am obliged to forgo the position I hold in your congregation as officiating Minister. Believe me Gentlemen it grieves me much that I have to do so after receiving such kind treatment from you all since my return from Melbourne”.

From Katrina & Jenny Cowen:
Julia’s husband commenced his career in Adelaide as the reader at the Adelaide Synagogue then travelled to the gold rush area of Victoria for 18 months and returned to Adelaide to become the licensee of the Blenheim Hotel and at the hotel in the Gilles Arcade in Adelaide. (Emanuel Solomon owned the arcade). | Family: F773
