Other than the names, the fact that Hugh meet his wife in Victoria ( hence boxhill) there was no third daughter Elizabeth. his son married a 'Elizabeth'.
Hugh was only visiting Australia at the time he meet his wife, he held the position of The ( possible as 'deputy ' at the actual time) Clerk of the Crown in various Northern counties of Ireland from around 1866? onwards,until to his death approx 1914 in Northern Ireland, so may have been here in Australia initially on Law matters probably precedence of law as he was a known expert in British law on the subject. He may have simply been on holidays.
Interesting the amount of 'clobbers' historical records can turn up.
