The marriage to Diana Davies took place in the 3rd quarter of 1869 (v11a p738)
Dixwell emigrated to Australia in 1870 on the Ellen Stuart from the Port of London, arriving in Sydney on 8th December of that year. I am notsure what became of his wife Diana - there is no death record for a Diana Cadogan of the correct age in the UK.
His occupation in Australia was that of a Hawker.
According to Violet Healey he arrived to the Colony as a remittance man.
He died in Liverpool Asylum in New South Wales of paralysis on 21/01/1892.
He appears in the 1884 Sand & Sydney Directory living at No.2 Wethered Street, Sydney,
He had an affair with a maid in Mary Cadogan's household and had 3 sons out of wedlock.
According to recollections by Violet Healey's mother, Dixwell did not change his ways in the Colony and was known in family circles as "Dirty Dick"-
