I am wanting to make contact with anyone who can tell me about 2 jockey's named Jim Pike who was a regular rider of Phar Lap in Australia and the jockey Charlie Miller who died in a fall at Balranald in May 1824. Both these people were known to my grandmother's family who lived in Broken Hill and I have notes written by my grandmother of things they did or things they gave her. I presume they would have been well known in Broken Hill and wondered if they even had family there, or perhaps a racing historian might know more about them or can steer me in the right direction. Jim Pike was a relative by marriage to the Ward, Dance and Brobble families and Charlie Miller was a close friend of my grandmother. Any help would be gratefully received.
