[2] In 1853 a pastoral lease was taken out by partners William Spence Peter and George Elder who then pioneered a sheep station which they named the Booleroo run.
Peter decided to settle in the Canterbury region of New Zealand as a stud sheep breeder.
[4] The purchaser was former Londoner Philip Levi, whose pastoralism interests eventually included Moolooloo, North-West Bend, Gum Creek, Mount Margaret, among others.
[6] The historic Booleroo Whim well on the Willowie-Booleroo Road is listed on the South Australian Heritage Register.
Booleroo Centre is also host to large grain receival facilities and fertiliser depots.
