Trying to find Rayner

I am looking for any information on William Rayner born in Huddersfield, Yorkshire around 1852. He travelled to Australia some time before 1888 and married a Hannah Diggory in Adelaide, South Australia. They had three living children, Adelaide, Nellie and William Jnr. It is believed that he returned to England around 1900 to raise money for a gold mine he was working on and either died or just never came back. If anyone has any information I would be very pleased to hear from you. Wendy Rayner.
