It would seem from the number of atricles in the newspaper that Emily  might not have wanted to come to Queensland and probably didn`t like being here. The last of the notices appears in 1880 and nothing more has been found of Emily since then and it is assumed that she has died about that time. Her husband James starts having children with Mary Elizabeth HAIR at approximately the same time.
There is a letter in the dead letter office in October 1880 for an Emily MASSEY living in Toowoomba, which was a colonial posting.
