Hilda Tuxworth obtained some of the Banka Banka diaries around the time Mary Ward was selling the property. This took from 1970 to 1972 when the sold the property. Mary Ward shared the diaries between her niece, Val Edwards, and Hilda. Banka Banka Station was established by Thomas Nugent as a cattle station in 1895. Nugent left the station to his sister, Mary Ambrose. The first diary from 1928 to 1931 would have been recorded during the ownership by the the Ambrose family. The Ambrose Family owned and ran the station until Paddy Ambrose put Banka Banka on the market in 1940. Ted and Mary Ward bought it in 1941. Capital from the Wards' Blue Moon Mine was used initially to purchase and then to undertake improvements and developments of the station. From 1945 weather details began to be recorded in the diaries. Ted Ward died on 17 March 1959. Mary Ward ran the station until 1970. In 1972 the land titles for the pastoral lease were transferred to Nelson Bunker-Hunt.
