Elizabeth Maria Newbon, their second daughter, married Henry Randle Jackson in about 1858 but the marriage has so far not been traced. We know from the 1871 census that Elizabeth Maria’s daughter Ellen was born in Calcutta c.1859 and her son William Harry in Sydney c.1861, but whether the Jackson family returned to England for a period in the late 1850s or spent time in India is not known. The 1871 census shows Elizabeth Maria Jackson living at The Grove House back in Gravesend, Kent, with her mother Mrs Elizabeth Newbon,and her two children Ellen and William. Elizabeth Maria’s husband Henry Jackson is not mentioned in this census and 10 years later Elizabeth can be found living alone in lodgings in Westminster. She is still listed as married at this date, but it seems likely that the coupled separated. Elizabeth died at Camberwell in 1889. William Harry Jackson died (most likely unmarried) in Hong Kong on October 1st 1900.

When Mrs Elizabeth Newbon died at Gravesend in 1893 at the age of 75, the only one of her 5 children still alive was her youngest daughter Minna Louisa Newbon. Minna died unmarried, also at Gravesend, in 1941, at the age of 85. Her will contains legacies to her nephews and nieces in Australia and England, proving that the Newbon family kept up their links across the world.
