I'd be interested, Nancy! Who was it?
There was a definite Morgan influence in the early QH's- unfortunately
the *names* of many of theses Morgans have been lost to history. For
instance, a dun mare named Pope's Goldie (P-6148) foaled in 1932 (bred
by JA Ranch, TX) was by Yellow Boy 18 and out of the JA sorrel mare,
who was by 'a Morgan horse'.
Tom Burnett of the Triangle Ranch used the Brunk-bred Morgans Jubilee
King (an extremely influential stallion in the Morgan breed in his
later years; for two of his close-up descendants, see my web pages and
check out 'Mera' and 'Boy'- typical of the mostly flaxen chestnuts
from this line) and the mare Deura in his breeding program. Most of
Jubilee King's offspring were gelded for ranch use, but he sired some
good QH broodmares as well including Mc's Rat (who produced the
palomino stallion, Mack's Goldfish 23470).
