TitleMrs Hanorah Mullins with her son Denis Doyle (who was known as Dinny)DescriptionMrs Mullins was 106 years 364 days old according to her Death Certificate when she died. Denis Doyle was one of seven children from the marriage of Hanorah Sheehan and Charles Doyle. The property was selected by James Mullins (shown as Mullens on the selection documents). On 28 January 1876, James Mullins (second husband of Hanorah Doyle (nee Sheehan)) selected land at King Scrub, being Portion 129 Parish of Samsonvale containing an area on 98 acres. On 15 July 1879 James Mullins selected an adjacent property, Portion 144 Parish of Samsonvale, containing an area of 60 acres. These properties are on the southern side of the road that is now known as Bond Road King Scrub. It remained as a dairy farm for over 100 years, before becoming a vineyard and winery in 1999. Even at the age of 95 years she was still milking a herd of 40 cows by hand. Glengariff Historic Estate is still owned and operated by the sixth generation of her descendants.PhotographerWrightson FamilyRecord typePhotographFormat typePhysicalOriginal format colourSepia
