He moved on to Hawkes Bay and then Dannevirke, there marrying Christine Bak 19 August 1876 in the Dannevirke Schoolhouse, which then doubled as the Lutheran Church. Las went on to become a successful dairy farmer, eventually purchasing a property in Dixons Line, Bunnythorpe, opposite the rugby grounds.
