The couple came to New Zealand and had seven children.
When Mary signed the suffrage petition the family were living in Castle St, Dunedin.
Joseph died in 1893 and Mary died on 27 February 1902 at Newmarket, Auckland while visiting family.
They are buried in the family grave in the Northern Cemetery.
