1920 The three brothers were devoted to their mother & took it apon themselves to provide a new house for her in Toppo before they considered themselves.

Just prior to buying 1 Booth St Annandale, Peter & Tony purchased a site in Yurong St, East Sydney. but before they could settle on the purchase, someone made them an offer they couldn't refuse & sold it. With their newfound gain, they managed to buy the bigger site in Booth St & secure enough finance to build their mothers new house "Glaria".

Tony left for Toppo in 1920 & organised the building
of his mothers new house, for which she would become
very proud of.
