George took up land in the hundred of Appila, in the South Australia's northern agricultural district, in 1879. His uncle, John Prentice Hughes, was already farming at Willowie, some 30 miles further north. In 1884 Sarah's father purchased the Appila property from George and leased it back to him. In 1896 the family moved to a farm a little west of Laura, this land also having been purchased by Sarah's father. (Ref. Bob Howlett)
