Married Mary BLAYNEY in 1928 in Glenealy Church of Ireland.
They had eight children: one (Frederick James) became the first vicar of St. James in Chorley, Lancashire. (I have good information regarding him)
Two sons (William Henry John and George Francis Charles) came to New Zealand. (Also have some information on these two)
One daughter, Emily died in 1935 after being housekeeper for Frederick for many years.

He died in Wicklow on 18 June 1847 according to the death notice in the Warder and Dublin Weekly Mail of 26 June 1847. Died of fever "leaving a numerous young family to deplore the loss of a kind parent and protector".

He was practising as a certified apothecary in Wicklow in 1823 http://www.dippam.ac.uk/eppi/documents/10244/page/226722
