My grandmother was the sister of Elizar Bottomley , Horatio's wife. My grandfather Christen Christenson was a breeder and trainer of racehorses many of which were owned by Horatio Bottomley at his stud and stables at the 'Dicker'. I have many photographs of the horses and of stables which I believe to be those at Upper Dicker. If you have any records of my family I would be happy to swap information.
