Newry was a sketcher and photographer who travelled with two friends, including Prince Alfred, Duke of Edinburgh, on a round the world voyage in 1868/69. During his time in Australia, Newry completed a series sketches and photographs but his after hours activities and 'fast' behaviour received more attention than his drawings.
