Official sources give different dates for the births !
Henry became the Assistant Commissariat General based in Hobart.
He returned to Guernsey after the death of Amelia Hide in February 8th, 1855 with 5 unmarried daughters.
Amelia died in 1853 in Hobart as did his son Henry William George at Sandy Bay in 1858.
He also worked in the Commissariat Department.
One daughter remained in Tasmania, Maria Margaret Priaulx who married at the beautiful St George’s Church in Hobart at the end of January 1855 Eugene Bellairs, surveyor and explorer, and she died in New Zealand
Two children were born to Eugene and Maria at Launceston, Adele Marie Louise in 1859 and Henry Eugene in 1861.
Eugene’s mother and another sister, Mira Elizabeth Georgiana, also emigrated as both died in Tasmania.
In 1862 Eugene returned to work in New Zealand for the British Government where four more children were born. Unfortunately, all of his offspring either died in
infancy or did not marry so there are no direct descendants today.
Eugene passed away 23rd September 1898 at Parnell,
Auckland. A photograph is in the 1902 Encyclopaedia of New Zealand Vol.2.
