He came to Australia in 1856. He joined the Methodist Church, studied at the University of Melbourne, was ordained a minister and in 1864 went to Fiji as a missionary, becoming interested in Fijian and Tongan social systems, also working on Australian Aboriginal social systems while on return visits. He returned permanently to Australia in 1884, living mainly near Melbourne. He retired from active ministry in 1888, and from then until 1905 was editor of the Spectator, the Methodist paper, and continued his work in anthropology.
