Rube Hargrave, Lawrence's grand-daughter in law, is the star of the story behind this home. Wollongong Council's first female councillor, first female Deputy Lord Mayor and active promoter of women's rights at a time when this was extremely brave and rare. Rube was later awarded an Order of Australia for her services to women and local government.
