Graham and Sarah [Hart] had six girls and four boys. From 1877, the family lived in their ‘villa residence’ in Indooroopilly – Greylands – an elegant, and now heritage-listed, home set in large gardens. The family moved to Wickham Terrace during the early 1880s, while their children attended the nearby Grammar schools, but had returned to Greylands by 1888.

When the Heritage Rose Garden was planted in New Farm Park in c1988. the cuttings for 'Mrs Graham Hart' came from Nindooinbah Station. Refer ‘Gwendoline Collins’ for more on this station. It may be of interest that Padre Hart attended the funeral of Gwendoline's son.
