Hi Ros,
The probate papers are also digitised online at Provic
The man lived in both NSW and Victoria at different times I think.

Octavius died 16 January 1913 at “Carnanton” Camden Park, Tunbridge Wells, KENT UK.

His will is on PROV VIC and makes quite the read. He had property in Australia and NZ.

His wife was Mabel. I can’t see a marriage. In VIC, NZ or UK. Could be in NSW, but NSWBDM is working at the mo.

He also mentions his brother Michael Campbell Langtree of “Hardwicke” YASS NSW. I’d say this is Campbell  who arrived in 1852.

This is very promising. I now know about his arrival with family in Australia.

I see an obituary here that tells me about his support for building a church. He certainly had great experience in Ireland as this link might show ... He was the land agent who was responsible for the building of this magnificent residence, Garron Tower.

The John who arrived in 1852 was a farmer:

Perhaps as an aside …

Slight variation in some of the information…

LANGTREE-BOWLER
March 16, at Warrendine, by the Rev Canon Dunstan,
M Campbell Langtree, son of the late John Langtree of Victoria to Adelaide Minna, second daughter of A.C.R. Bowler, of Forbes.

LANGTREE-BOWLER
ON THE 16TH INST, AT Warrendine, Forbes, New South Wales, by the Rev Canon Dunstan, M Campbell Langtree to Adelaide Minna, second daughter of A.R.C. Bowler. 

However, if it is significant for recording on a family tree chart, I am fairly certain that it should be A.C.R. Bowler, as in Adolphus Chorley Robert BOWLER.

Victoria may have died as Mary Victoria Langtree in 1929, as the age in the death notice fits with her birth year. Also, possibly in NSW, as I can’t see her on VICBDM. 1st column: http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article16608871

I cannot find the Charlotte aged 1, who arrived in 1852.
