What happened to Amelia Frampton

[jrc11]

Amelia Shore Eames was born 1842 in Bedminster Bristol England.. Her parents were Lavinia Hill and William Shore Eames who married 14 July 1841 @ St Mary Redcliff Bristol. She had 3 sisters,  Mary Ann, 1842 (my g grandmother) Fanny c 1845 who are both fully researched and Maria c1839 of whom I know little and what I do know is confusing so I am ignoring for the time being.
Amelia was living with an aunt in Bristol in 1851 and a servant in London in 1861.In 1865 she married Thomas Milton Frampton at St John in Bedminster Bristol. They had 4 children all born in the London area:
1866 Eliza Marion, 1870 Charles Edwin, 1872 Thomas Milton, 1876 Ada Elizabeth. On 17 December 1875 they left London on the Waipa arriving in Auckland April 2 1876. All 4 children died before 1912 and Thomas Milton sen died in 1905 and is buried in Waikumete cemetery Auckland.. I am unable to find any trace of Amelia after her arrival in NZ. A passenger list on WikiTree would appear to indicate that she arrived in NZ. What happened to her? For brevity I have not included further details of  her children but am happy to do so.
Regards

Thank you for the replies. I had seen a passenger list but not the newspaper report. It incorrectly states the family were from Dorset. Only Thomas (sen) was from Dorset. Amelia was from Bristol and the children were all born in and around London. As a family there is no evidence that they ever lived in Dorset.  Re the will, 3 of his 4 children were deceased only Eliza was still alive. She was married with 2 young children at the time of Thomas's death and it might have been expected that they would have had a mention. The search for Amelia goes on/

She probably threw up her hands in horror.

I wonder if the jubilee booklet would say anything pertinent
