History of one of the the earliest pastoral families in the South East of South Australia - the Leake family of Glencoe. Letitia Sarah Leake was the daughter of squatter Edward Leake who with his brother Robert moved from Tasmania to the South East of South Australia in 1844, where they established a vast pastoral empire - Glencoe Station. Following a massive and unpleasant court case, Letitia became the sole beneficiary of this estate and moved to England, where at the advent of WW1 she gave her English estate to the Government of Australia to house and treat over 50,000 wounded ANZACs.
