History
This stud was founded in 1886 by Melbourne merchants and Pastoralists, John and George Whittingham. When they bought the Willandra estate, North-West of Hillston, in 1863, the station had a flock of Tasmanian sheep descended from Merinos brought from Saxony to Van Dieman's land by the Forlonge family in 1829. Between 1880 and 1886, Whittingham brothers introduced additional stock from Tasmania to the Willandra flock (probably selected from Belle Vue), and to these ewes and a ram they added 3 rams bred WANGANELLA, F. No. 83, BOONOKE, F. No. 7, and BUNGAREE, F. No. 110. In 1894, the London Bank of Australia became the mortgagee-in-possession of Willandra and the station manager, Arthur Laird, reconstructed the flock and made further additions of Tasmanian and Wanganella blood. At the same time, he purchased ewes of Tasmanian and Wanganella blood bred on Canoon Station. In 1912, the bank sold the station and stud to T.A. Field, James and Stanley Vickery, and in 1932 this partnership was dissolved, with Vickerys retaining ownership. In 1960, Willandra was sold to the New Zealand and Australian Land Company and taken over in 1969 by Dalgety-New Zealand Loan. In 1972, Willandra became a national park and the stud was moved to the Yanko Station, Jerilderie. In November 1974, the complete stud was purchased by the Wells family and moved to their property at Jerilderie.
