PROV has digitised Probate papers which do not tell us much more, only that, at the time probate was to have been paid, it was believed that his wife and children, whose Christian names are unknown, are believed to be living in Sydney.

The estate consists of Twenty-six pounds, one shilling and eight pence which is Army pay due to him.
