Janet A Sim and Ellen E Sim are married to a different Henry Smedley to Henry Samuel Young Smedley (husband of Ivy Jane Marshall)
Both Henrys were born in Sydney around the same time with similar names - but funeral notices show that the Jane and Ellen's husband, Henry Smedley, was the son of Mrs George Smedley, his brothers were brothers, George, William, Walter and Arthur Smedley and sisters, Mrs Alfred Luland and Mrs James Duncan

I think Janet and Ellen should be disconnected from Henry Samuel Young Smedley . And the children of Janet and Ellen connected to Henry Smedley son of George Smeldley and Martha Pollard.
Ellen E Sim and Janet A Sim removed as wives of Henry Samuel Young Smedley, as actually married to Henry Smedley son of George Smedley and Martha Pollard.
