 Charlotte his daughter married Thomas Wroe in1857 when she was 17 and had 4 children, Francis Eliza, Eva Charlotte, Alice Miriam and Henry.  Charlotte died in 1866 aged just 26 of liver disease.  Her father Samuel Mason died in 1873 also of liver disease and dropsy. His wife Eliza died in 1876 of pnuemonia. Both are buried in St Lukes Anglican churchyard in Richmond Tasmania.
