History
A Family called Humphryes (sometimes spelt Humphreys or Humphries) lived on a 100 acre property which was first promised to Patrick Humphryes in 1823. Shortly after land title was confirmed in 1841, his son Thomas purchased the land from his father. Devout Catholics, the Humphryes were early supporters of the building of a Catholic Church at Brisbane Water. It is uncertain whether the land for the Church at South Kincumber was donated or sold to the Catholic Church by the Humphryes.
Construction of
Holy Cross Church
at South Kincumber began in the early 1840s. A progress date of 1842 can be seen in the stone set in the front wall of the church. Evidence suggests that 1844 was the year of completion. Many members of the Humphryes family are buried
in the graveyard next to Holy Cross.
