Agent TypeFamilyIdentifierUMA-AG-000001470Activities & OccupationsLivestock breedersHistoryKhancoban Station is situated across the Murray (or Indi) River almost due east of Corryong and in the foothills of the Snowy Mountains. It was in the hands of members of the Mitchell family in 1921, when it passed to Mitchell's nephew, Captain Colin John Chisholm then to a son of Captain Chisholm. The interest in horse-breeding has been strong in both the Chisholm and Mitchell families. A thoroughbred horse stud was established at Khancoban in 1921, and the bulk of the records concern this aspect of the Chisholm family's business. Cattle and sheep breeding were also undertaken, a Hereford stud being established in 1921 and a Corriedale stud in 1929.Search records of this agent
