Margaret died 1883 in Victoria, Australia.

Wrong parents named for Margaret.
I expect the informant was one of her children and when asked for parents names, meaning those of the deceased, they have named their own parents.

Joseph REDDROP came out to Australia on the Great Britain in 1861 when he was 24 years old. There was also a C REDDROP (aged 19 years) recorded on the passenger list. I expect Joseph came out first to find work and a place for his family to live. Joseph's parents and siblings came out on the Great Britain in 1863.
