Margaret Hunter, who knew the family, wrote that Priestman also "had at least one daughter, namely Barbara Priestman, who was born in or shortly after 1900.  She was already headmistress of the Froebel School in Barons Court  (the demonstration school for the Froebel training college in Roehampton) when I started there (in its nursery class) in 1934.  She remained in that post throughout the War and afterwards, until she retired.  She died in the late 1970's as far as I can recall.  She was a remarkable woman - but that's another story!"In 1929, Priestman was appointed Head of the Department of Physics at University of New Brunswick, a position which he held for twelve years. After his discharge in September 1945, he returned to the position of Head of the Department of Physics at UNB. On November 11, 1945, Bryan Priestman died in an attempt to rescue a drowning boy from the St. Johns River.
