Personal Notes:
Theresa Ellen was always referred to by her family as Nellie. She was born in England and travelled to Australia with her parents in 1884. She remembered the trip from Ipswich at six years of age, in 1887, to the family's rural selection at Bia"a that they named 'Merton Hall Farm'.

Her mother journeyed by train to Esk with five children, arriving at 9pm. They stayed overnight at Markwell's Hotel and their father arrived early the next day from Biarra with horse and dray to take them
and their possessions to their new home. The loaded dray only enabled the youngest to ride, and the rest walked the ten miles to the selection. Nellie was enrolled at Biarra School in June 1888 at the age
of six, leaving in October 1893.

Nellie married Herman Himstedt at 'Merton Hall Farm' and they lived in Esk for a while. Albert was always referred to by the Francis men as "Hermie". In 1904 they purchased some rural land subdivided from 'Colinton Station', Moore, taking up residence in 1905, and named the place 'Glen Hills'. They had a family of five children, all boys.

They took Herman's cousin, Arthur Pearmine, into partnership and, in 1917, bought out his interest in this grazing and dairying property. More land adjoining was later purchased in partnership with their sons. Nellie and Hermie were always helpful to others, and their 'open home' and hospitality were appreciated by many.
