Looks as if he met a bit of a sad end.

In 1887 a man named John Crowe was killed in an accident. This news item mentions, as the victims first wife, the daughter of William CUBBON  and gives him a nickname.

In 1870 mispelt as CUBBIN, a tale of falling out, assault and battery between William  CUBBON and the above mentioned son-in-law, John CROWE who was also from the Isle of Man.

Looks like it took an extended period to settle his estate as there appear to be multiple claims on his Estate. His file would have all the details and make an interesting read.

Hi.

CROWE John, Jeebropilly, Ipswich.

Thank you all.  Makes very interesting reading.  He was found guilty of forging his Mother’s Will in his favour, rather than his sister.  His Father was still alive and I think he was the person to report his son.  Interesting his daughters followed him over.
Also found article that someone met similar death a few years before!

July 22 1871

MAGISTERIAL INQUIRY

A magisterial inquiry into the cause of the death of GEORGE GRAHAM, found dead at a waterhole at Three-mile Creek, on the 19th instant, was held by the police magistrate, at the house of WILLIAM CUBBON, of Jebropilly, on Thursday last. EDWIN COLLETT deposed to having discovered the body of deceased, whom he knew by sight and by name, lying in a waterhole in Mr. Cubbon’s paddock, at Three-mile Creek; deceased was on his belly with his face in the water; there was only four or five inches of water where his face lay......witness got the assistance of GEORGE WHITNEY. William Cubbon deposed to having seen the body of the deceased.....he knew the deceased who had been in the habit of going to his house occasionally. ROBERT ALLEN deposed as to the identification of the body, who was a widower aged 33 years, and was born in County Tyrone, Ireland; deceased was Presbyterian and had a daughter living with her grandmother in Brisbane......... (Queensland Times, Ipswich Herald and General Advertiser)

Interesting his daughters followed him over.

Perhaps you have information I have not seen, but I do not see that any daughters other than Isabella came to Australia.

Margaret MARTIN died in Flintshire in Jan 1903 England. Probate/effects etc to husband Thomas Philip Hugh MARTIN in 1920, 17 years after her death.

The son of Margaret MARTIN applied 1914 for subdivision of the Jeebropilly land. He was a seaman and in Brisbane, QLD

Esther WOOD (nee CUBBON) likewise seems to have remained in England with her husband William whom she married in 1863. They can be seen together on the census data 1871 and 1891.
ADDING EDIT
I have edited and deleted portion of the information here as I feel unsure about it and do not want to mislead and confuse.

The news items regarding the wrangles over the property in Jeebropilly do not actually say that either of these women is in Australia.

Further details available if needed.

Thank you, yes, only one daughter.
I haven’t got access to ancestry at the moment, would love to see census details on the daughters and families, and where they were in Liverpool.  Was Margaret in Flintshire in 1901?
Was the Will ever sorted?  What was the problem?  Anywhere to find this information out?
It’s ironic that he was transported for allegedly forging his Mother’s Will and the subsequent wrangle of his own. 
Thanks again
