She died, aged 94, in 1899. Benjamin later returned to Ireland and took up the threads of his former life in the old home of Newtown, Dunlavin. During this period, his wife, not caring for Ireland, returned to Canada and made her home there. Benjamin passed away at the age of 76 in 1878, and was buried in the Old Church Yard of Dunlavin.
