George Riddoch : ウィキペディア英語版 | George Riddoch George Riddoch (10 August 1842 – 23 April 1919) was a pastoralist and politician in the State of South Australia. ==History== Riddoch was born at Turriff, in Aberdeenshire, Scotland, and he arrived in Victoria with his parents in 1851. He was educated at the Geelong Seminary. In 1861 he left for the South-East of South Australia, where his brother John Riddoch (1827–1901) had invested heavily in the pastoral industry. He helped run his Yallum and Katnook stations, near Penola and Weinteriga on the Darling River, New South Wales,〔Leith G. MacGillivray, ('Riddoch, John (1827–1901)' ), ''Australian Dictionary of Biography'', National Centre of Biography, Australian National University, published in hardcopy 1988, accessed online 25 October 2014〕 which he purchased from Harrold Brothers around 1876. He and his brother purchased Glencoe station, founded by Edward and Robert Leake, which covered and featured a magnificent woolshed now held by the National Trust.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Glencoe woolshed )〕 When the Riddoch brothers dissolved their partnership in 1898, George took the northern half, which he named "Koorine". John broke up his portion for closer settlement.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Photo gallery )〕 At his station, near Kalangadoo, north of Mount Gambier, George bred Merino sheep and Hereford cattle. He later became the owner of the Nalang, Wirriga, and Cannawigra Stations near Tatiara. He was also involved in dairy farming and wheat growing; at one stage he had some under cultivation.
