“Anlaby Station”的意思、由来-开放百科全书

Anlaby or Anlaby Station is a pastoral lease located about {{convert|12|km|mi|0}} south east of Marrabel and {{convert|14|km|mi|0}} north of Kapunda in the state of South Australia.

The locality was first explored by Europeans in March 1838 by the party of Hill, Wood, Willis, and Oakden, who were scouting an overlanding route from the Murray. The station is the oldest merino stud in Australia and was settled in 1839 by Capt. John Finnis,^[1] who called it "Mount Dispersion" (the Aboriginal name was Pudna), and stocked it with 12,000 sheep.^[2] The property was acquired in 1841 by Frederick Dutton, at which time it was at the frontier of European settlement.

In the early days Anlaby extended from near Kapunda to Tothill's Creek occupying an area of {{convert|160000|acre|ha|0}} with a length of {{convert|25|mi|km|0}} and a width of {{convert|10|mi|km|0}}.^[3] The neighbouring pastoralist to the west and north was W. S. Peter, while to the south was Bagot's Koonunga. To the east was the Murray scrub.

Aboriginal depredations on sheep resulted in a two-man mounted police station being established at Julia Creek 1842-46 to protect the Anlaby and Koonunga flocks. The property ran as many as 70,000 sheep and shearing lasted nine months employing 70 people.^[4]

In 1843 a log hut was constructed for the manager Alexander Buchanan. The name of the run was also changed by Dutton to Anlaby, the name of the Yorkshire village that his sister's husband hailed from.^[3] By 1851 the property had been reduced to {{convert|70000|acre|ha|0}} with the loss of another {{convert|24000|acre|ha|0}} so closer settlement could be made. Another {{convert|30000|acre|ha|0}} from Anlaby was subdivided for wheat farming up until 1917. Returned servicemen were allocated another {{convert|8000|acre|ha|0}} between 1918 and 1922.

The manager, whose son, also named Alexander Buchanan, rose to become Master of the South Australian Supreme Court, died in 1865^[5] and his place was filled by Henry Thomas Morris (1823–1911), a nephew of John Hindmarsh, and one of the original {{HMS|Buffalo|1813|6}} immigrants of 1836.^[6] Later managers were Peter and Mayoh Miller, then C. Campbell.^[7] Frederick Dutton died in 1890 and left Anlaby to his nephew Henry Dutton who carried out extensive improvements. He married the accomplished musician and socialite Emily Martin on 29 November 1905. On Henry's death in 1932 she took over management of the station and cattle stud. The Anlaby Pastoral Company was formed in 1960 and took over control of the property. Partners were Emily Dutton (manager), John H. Dutton, Geoffrey P. Dutton, Helen Blackburn and Leonie Dutton.

By 1968 the stud and property were acquired by the Mosey family. In early 2009 Andrew Morphett acquired Anlaby.^[8]

The prolific author Geoffrey Dutton grew up at Anlaby and includes information about his ancestors in his 1985 book The Squatters.^[11]
