Just what the title says. Meant for two finger style and to sing along with. About 55bpm.

I'm a clawhammer player and tabber, so take that in consideration on my comments.

I am wondering what you mean with two-finger style? In my opinion, and also most of the readers here, two-finger is a rather rapid flow of notes where every second note ate played by index finger and every second by thumb (more or less). This piece seems to be a rather slow tune (bpm 55) so you can play several 1/16 notes after each other with the same finger without problem. You should add right hand fingering to illustrate your intended playing.
The notes within parentheses is another question. Usually these are ghost notes which are not heard. I guess you you want to show that these are fill-in notes and shall not be emphasized as the melody notes. This use of ghost notes may cause more confusion than information for tab readers. In TablEdit it is possible to change the size of the fret figure, either make it bigger for melody notes, or smaller for fill-in notes.
Don't forget to show the banjo tuning! I guess that this is standard G tuning, but it may also be C tuning (gCGBD)?
I hope you know that you can listen to the tab in TablEdit (and other softwares too). By listening you will get another view of the arrangement than if you play it yourself.
This is how I would arrange South Australia in two-finger style.
