“Remember me in the family tree, my name, my days, my strife; then I’ll ride upon the wings of time And live an endless life.” ~ Linda Goetsch.
Continuing with my recent theme of visiting old houses that hold some significance to me, I felt compelled to include a historic family homestead, situated just outside of Murwillumbah on the far northern New South Wales coast. This home is named “Lisnagar”.
To this day I can still remember the first time I spotted “Lisnagar” whilst driving past the home in the back seat of my parent’s station wagon. We had only just moved to Murwillumbah, having relocated from the Blue Mountains, west of Sydney. I was thirteen years old and this beautiful old home immediately conjured up images in my young, impressionable minds-eye of women wearing lovely long white dresses, and bonnets with big ribbon ties under their chins.
My interest with “Lisnagar” was resurrected at the age of nineteen, when I met the man who was to become my husband. This beautiful old home had been built by his great-grandfather, Edward Twohill.
“Lisnagar” was built in the early 1900’s by Edward and his wife Ellen and is presently owned by Terry Twohill, a grandson of Edward and Ellen’s.
The home has remained in the Twohill family throughout all the years of its existence, with two of Ellen and Edwards unmarried children, Emma and Kevin, being the last two occupants.
The eldest child of Edward and Ellen was Esther, my husband’s grandmother. Esther lived to the ripe old age of ninety years. (Esther’s eldest son just celebrated his 99th birthday!) Esther passed away in 1983 and during the six years that I knew her, barely a weekend went by that we didn’t spend some time with Gran and her best friend, a tiny female chihuahua named “Kelly”.
The Twohill family are an eccentric clan, to say the least! Dear old Gran, bless her soul, was certainly not the stereotypical warm and fuzzy grandmother! She remained opinionated and fiery by nature, right through to the day she died.
“Lisnagar” is an extremely beautiful homestead, with wrought iron lace work adorning all the verandas, as was the style of architecture during the Victorian era. I had the opportunity of photographing the detailed lace work close up recently when visiting the home with my husband and daughters during a family reunion.
When I decided to add my photos of “Lisnagar” here today, I searched Google to see if I could find any links to websites to share, only to find some rather wishy-washy links available. So what I will offer is my story, my photos and my memories of the fiery daughter of Edward and Ellen, whom I was fortunate enough to know.
Gran spoke very fondly of her old family home. She had married in 1912, the same year the Titanic sank, the reception of the wedding being held at “Lisnagar”.
Gran and her female siblings were very artistic, with the walls within “Lisnagar” holding a number of old drawings and paintings done by the girls. Gran had been a very talented artist in her younger day, although her artistic ambitions had ended with the birth of the first of her twelve children.
The grounds of “Lisnagar” are another story within themselves, which I will continue with tomorrow….

Hi Veronica!

Amid the confusion, we worked out that there are two ladies in Murwillumbah with the same name, however they told me that your Marie is getting on in years now but she still goes to the church whenever she’s needed, to decorate it with flowers. I thought that was a lovely story.
You are so right, they all had very big families, and so many of the names have been repeated too (especially Leo and Mary!) so it can become confusing at times, working out who is who. 🙂

I was shocked by the appearance as it looked very run down and unkept with part of the wrought iron missing from the top balcony and the grounds very overgrown. Is someone living there now? Will the house be restored? After dreaming about seeing this beautiful house for the past 30 years I was extremely disappointed in what I saw.

His parents were Alexander and Eliza and he had seven brothers and three sisters. Sister Berenice (Dympna) is the only surviving member of the family.

Hi Sandra,
I’m so pleased you have enjoyed my stories of Lisnagar so far. It is indeed a beautiful homestead and has been admired greatly for over 100 years now.
After reading your message I joined the Facebook group you mentioned, mainly to explain to people the situation of Terry Twohill, the owner of Lisnagar. Terry, my mother-in-law’s cousin, is turning 85 this year and his health has been declining in recent years. Family members, ourselves included, have been offering to help Terry with the maintenance on Lisnagar for several years, but being the proud man that he is, unfortunately he is refusing to accept any offers of help.
It’s very sad to see the old homestead declining, but at this point in time we must respect Terry’s wishes. My husband called in to see Terry in January and felt extremely upset to see the declining health of his cousin. Again, my husband offered his help, which is all we can do just now.
I’m sorry I don’t have better news for you. We would love to see Lisnagar returned to its glory, however we have done all we can at this stage. Hopefully I can give you better news in the near future.

My wife and a next door neighbour, all living on the Gold Coast, purposely drove down today, 27th July 2018, to see the wonderful home and unfortunately, like Teresa Loughman, was so sad seeing the condition that Lisnagar was now in.
40 years ago was the very first time that we met this beautiful home and at one time we were going to try and copy it as we lived on a hill and could imagine it’s beauty there. We were too shy to go in and personally talk to the residents about it. Many many years later, after building a totally different styled house, we returned to show another friend this beautiful home and was fortunate to go inside…for some reason we didn’t like the position of the staircase and it was interesting to see one of your other contributions said about it being moved.
