ANSTEAD is an acreage community 17km southwest of Brisbane's CBD. It was named after John Anstead who was born in Devon, England in 1826. He arrived in Brisbane in 1858 and settled near what is now Mt Crosby Rd. He was a timber getter and died in 1893, according to Brisbane City Council library services. His son, John, worked as a farmer and later as manager of Sugars basalt quarry. Stone from the quarry was used in the construction of the heritage-listed Treasury Building at the top of Queen St. It is not clear whether this area would have been Jagera or Turrbal country as both groups occupied land in the Brisbane and Ipswich areas. Turrbal generally lived on Brisbane River's northside. Both groups had closely related languages which are classified as belonging to the larger Yaggera language group. Evidence of their occupation includes the bora ground at nearby Bellbowrie. The main ring is 22m in diameter and still visible. Sadly, the smaller ring and track joining the two were bulldozed for development. SQUATTER WILLIAM SHEEHAN established a cattle station in the area and another early settler was Darby McGrath, who squatted at the mouth of Moggill Creek near the junction of Moggill and Rafting Ground roads.
