Named after John Rowland Dacey (1854-1912) who had been a state parliamentarian for the area from 1895-1912 He wanted the creation of a garden suburb, modelled after a suburb in London, England – Letchworth.  Following Dacey’s death Sir John Sulman planned an estate of low cost housing for the working class people in Australia’s first garden city – on crown land, that had been reserved as a water conservation site.
