John Roberts, miner, Geelong and Ballarat

Classification: Query
Surnames: Roberts and Hayes
John Roberts was my 2nd great grandfather, he married Catherine Hayes in 1851 at St Peter's Church, Eastern Hill, Melbourne. They first lived in Geelong and eventually moved to Ballarat by 1860. They had 10 children. Does anyone know if this John Roberts is the same John Roberts who came on the ship Maitland as an exile in 1846, landing in Port Phillip Bay? He is not buried with Catherine, and the death certificate I do have is for a man never married with no relatives buried in Old Ballarat Cemetery. The dates of arrival etc tie in, more or less. Hope someone can help.
