Looking for family of Barney Hill and Rosie Sobloka

Another tough one. Barney Hill born about 1860. I have seen data where he was born in Australia or New Zealand..but?? He married a Rosie Sobloka who was from Slovenia. They definitely lived in Morris, Manitoba and had two sons there ie Albert Mike Hill in 1901 and Mael Hill in 1903.  I have lots of info on the Hill family AFTER Barney but I'd dearly want to know what happened before Barney such as who his parents were and where did they live before livin in Canada. Rosie was already 34 when their first son was born so they must have married later than the usual couples do. Not much to go on but just maybe I will get lucky and some kind soul can find some background for me. Thank you.

for others, here is the basic info from 1916 census

says his parents are from England 

sorry, i couldn’t find anymore info

hopefully one of the Canadian researchers who are experts finding newspaper articles might find something 

add tags for Canada and Australia so those researchers have better chance of finding this question

are you sure the lnab of the boys was Hill? is this Rose and the boys prior to living with Barney https://www.bac-lac.gc.ca/eng/census/1911/Pages/item.aspx?itemid=6279791
