Alice Springs 1950s - Diamond family - originally Irish

Classification: Query
Surnames: Diamond, McCann, Crossey, Armstrong
Hi,
I've recently started looking for the Tree and one minor detail has come up, any help or pointers would be appreciated.
My granny, Mary Crossey, nee Diamond,(born 1900) died in August 1953, and apparently in the following months my father was invited to join family members in Alice Springs.
They would (almost certainly) be called Diamond, possibly McCann or Armstrong, other branches of this immediate family.
This plan was for my father to go out, then be joined by my mother and elder brother, and the plan got as far as tickets being bought but it was dropped in the spring of 1957 when I came along - spoilsport!
So, can anyone give me a pointer to try and find these people? Apologies for it being so vague.
