He had also taken up pastoral pursuits at Cressy House adjoining his father’s property on his return from schooling in England. After his father’s death and childless he and his wife returned to England to retire in 1888.James Denton Toosey Jnr, who shared his father’s public spirit, left certain monies with his Trustees along with instructions to acquire land and build a hospital for the benefit of “the poor and needy, who may be sick and suffering in my native land, Tasmania, all to be treated free of charge”. The Trustees invested the money and let it accumulate until it reached a sum large enough to adequately fund a hospital.Welcome to Toosey Aged And Community Care, Longford TAS
