History of the City of Miles. Our little town of Miles was one of the last settlements in Jackson County because of the lack of the two essentials-wood and water. The first record of a settlement where the town now stands was in 1850 when Edwin S.Hatheway entered a quarter section of land.
Miles. Miles is a rural town at the junction of the Warrego and Leichardt Highways in the western Darling Downs, 300 km north-west of Brisbane. The Miles area was explored by Ludwig Leichhardt who, in October 1844, named a tributary of the Condamine River, Dogwood Creek.iles' main industries were grazing and cereal growing, with minor areas given over to dairying and citrus growing. The town had a Downs Co-operative butter factory (1913), a hospital (1913), four hotels, two sawmills, four storekeepers and several tradespeople. The Rex picture theatre was opened in the 1920s.
