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.
