The emigration of Georg Reis was sponsored by his brother  Johann, who remained behind in Germany. The family arrived in Australia in October 1852, carrying 3,076 Gulden, equivalent to 256 pounds. With these savings, they purchased a horse and dray, and preserved the remainder of their capital for the purchase of land in Albury.

From these beginnings, the family subsequently branched out into vineyards, retailing, shipping and local construction.
