The Tingalpa site, one acre of high ground fronting the road to Lytton (now Wynnum Road) about 6 miles beyond Kangaroo Point, was transferred early in 1868 from Joseph Berry to the Church Trustees (Bishop Edward Wyndham Tufnell and Tingalpa farmers Charles Coxen, John Mackenzie Shaw, Richard Warren Weedon and William Roach Wood).
