  • ANGAS FAMILY PAPERS PRG 175 Series List John Howard Angas
    ___________________________________________________________________________ ANGAS FAMILY PAPERS PRG 175 Series List John Howard Angas (1823-1904) was the second son of George Fife Angas. He arrived in South Australia in September 1843, having been appointed to manage his father's estates in the colony. He settled at Tarrawatta near Angaston where he established a successful pastoral business and built a fine homestead called Collingrove. The purchase of further land and livestock soon made him one of the largest landowners and foremost stud-breeders in the colony. In 1871 he entered Parliament as the member for Barossa later becoming a member of the Legislative Council for the Central District from 1887-94. His social, religious and philanthropic interests were also extensive and influential, and he contributed generously towards the establishment of many colonial institutions, including the University of Adelaide. He left an estate worth some £800,000.1 Susanne Collins Angas, the wife of John Howard Angas, was the daughter of Richard Collins, a corn-factor of Bowden, near Manchester. Her marriage to J.H. Angas took place in England in May 1855. She returned with her husband to live at Collingrove, but ill-health caused them to return to England for some years during which time a son and daughter were born. She died in April 1910, six years after the death of her husband.2 Charles Howard Angas (1861-1928) was the son of J.H. Angas. After being educated at St. Peter's College Adelaide, and in England, he gradually assumed responsibility for his father's vast properties and interests. He too became prominent as a stock-breeder, most notably with Lincoln sheep, while his business interests included chairmanship of the Willowie Land and Pastoral Association and the S.A.
