The stud was founded in 1896 by the Australian Estates and Mortgage Co. Ltd. when they selected 850 ewes from 99,155 ewes of the Terrick Terrick flock which, together with the property, the company purchased from D.S. Wallace. Up until 1916, rams were purchased from Boonoke, F. No. 7, Wanganella Estate, F. No. 84, Lucerndale, F. No. 202, Eli Elwah, F. No. 34, Bundemar, F. No. 11, Deniliquin Stud Park North, F. No. 195, North Bungaree, F. No. 125, Anama, F. No. 103, Merrinong, F. No. 55, Old Cathundral, F. No. 369, and Uardry, F. No. 79. In 1936, the name of the company was changed from the Australian Estates and Mortgage Co. Ltd. to the Australian Estates Co. Ltd. In January 1979, the stud was taken over by C.S.R. Pastoral Division. In July 1985, the stud was sold to NM Rural Enterprises Pty. Ltd. In September 2001, the stud, comprising 54 stud
sires and 2187 ewes (in lamb), was sold to Richard S.W. and Jennifer
E. Keogh, trading as R. & J. Keogh and the name changed from
Terrick Terrick to Terrick Merinos to save confusion with the
original property.
