Bubbles by Juzan was out of Aleada. Both Juzan and Aleada were by Jubilee King. Juzan being out of Liza Jane by Knox Morgan and Aleada being out of Ruby De Jarnette by Allen King. Again, close breeding, this time going back to Sherman via Daniel Lambert. Ruby De Jarnette brings in the very fast blood of Charles Reade through her dam, Mrs. Lewis. Charles Reade was the superb triple Registered Morgan, and very highly regarded in his day.

Tacinca , dam of Woodrose Katrina was sired by Rusty out of Wenonah. Rusty was bred by Ray Wellbanks of Cayucos, CA. and was later owned by Mary Spenser. He sired twenty two Morgan foals. As his name implies Rusty was not a big time show horse, rather he was a solid working ranch stallion. His blood brings in familiar names however. He was sired by Eprus, bred by The Maxwell Lodge of Lakeside, WA. Rusty was out of Pongata, a Pongee Morgan daughter. Eprus was by Escort, a Vermont bred stallion who was the sire of eighteen foals. Though bred in Vermont by WS Tod ( who lived in NY), Escort went to Spokane, WA. Escort was sired by McMahon Morgan General who was bred by Joseph Battell , Escort's dam was Viola by General Gates out of Marguerite. McMahon Morgan General was by Scotland out of Beauty. Both Scotland and Beauty were sired by General Gates. Scotland was out of Highland Mary, who was sired by Lambert Chief by Daniel Lambert. The dam of Highland Mary was Jessie Benson, a gray 15 hand mare by Darkey out of Betsey by Weston's Gray Hawk , son of Rocky Mountain, out of Weston's Mare by Bulrush Morgan. Darkey was a Black Hawk Morgan grandson out of L. Ray Mare by Andrus Hamiltonian. Lambert Chief's dam was Milk Maid by Coburn's American Star who was by Cock of the Rock by Sherman, and out of Judge Fe Sumner Gray Mare by Justin Morgan. Beauty who was the dam of McMahon Morgan General was out of the oddly named mare Coming Trotter who was by Motion by Daniel Lambert . Coming Trotter was out of Fanny Sleight by Ethan Allen by Black Hawk. Ethan Allen was out of Poll by Red Robin by Justin Morgan. Certainly this is intense Sherman /Justin Morgan breeding which has had a lasting influence. Viola, dam of Escort was out of Marguerite by White River Morgan. White River Morgan went back almost equally to Gifford and to Sherman Morgan on his sire's side. He went back to Sherman through Black Hawk more heavily on his dam's side still with a line to Gifford. Marguerite was owned by Joseph Battell and shown to 3rd Premium Aged mares at the 1904 St. Louis World's Fair. Pomona was the dam of Eprus sire of Rusty. Pomona was US Government Farm bred by Troubadour of Willowmoor out of Helen Gates by General Gates out of Caroline by Daniel Lambert. Caroline carried in addition to the Sherman bloodlines, a line to Morrill who goes to Bulrush Morgan.

Rusty's dam Pongata was by Pongee Morgan out of Red Oak by General Gates. Pongee Morgan was bred by JC Brunk , he was sired by Allen King, full brother to Penrod- sire of Jubilee King- and out of Galva. Galva was bred by Lloyd Z. Jones of Galva, Illinois, and owned by JC Brunk. She was by Billy Herod who went back to Sherman through Black Hawk at least five times. Galva's dam was Chista by Chetco by Ben Franklin by Daniel Lambert- more Sherman blood here. Rogata was the dam of Pongata. Rogata was a Sellman bred mare by Red Oak who was by General Gates out of Marguerite . Rogata's dam was Puss- a classic Sellman bred mare being by Gold Medal out of Mollie Gordon by Major Gordon by Octoroon Jr by Octoroon. Gold Medal by Meteor Jr. by Meteor by Young Rix by Chieften by Black Hawk Morgan. Gold Medal's dam side went back to General Knox and to Gifford Morgan including a line to Brutus by Justin Morgan. Octoroon went back to Woodbury Morgan and to Bulrush Morgan as well as having a line to the Hawkins Horse by Justin Morgan.

Wenonah was the dam of Tacinca, dam of Woodrose Katrina. Wenonah was bred by Dr. H.F. Spencer of Arroyo Grande, California. She was a red chestnut foaled in 1957. She was the dam of eight Morgan foals. Wenonah was sired by the Mountcrest Sellman son- Redman and she was out of Morman's Red Lady. Redman was bred by WR Hearst and his dam Red Dot was bred by Roland G. Hill, but despite that Redman was virtually a pure Sellman bred stallion, even though Pongee Morgan , bred by JC Brunk was the sire of Red Dot. A very illustrious combination of breeders, representing some of the best of the best of breeding indeed. Wenonah's dam Morman's Red Lady, brought in a variation of bloodlines from what we have seen thus far. Morman's Red Lady was by Lippitt Morman, thus adding that Ancient Vermont blood to the mix. Lippitt Morman was by Mansfield out of the archetypal Lippitt mare- Lippitt Kate Moro. Lippitt Kate Moro was bred by RL Knight, she was by Moro out of Croyden Mary. This is foundation Lippitt breeding going back to Sherman via Billy Root, Royal Morgan, and Black Hawk, while going back to Bulrush through Morgan One Eye, and back to Woodbury through not only Gifford Morgan, but through General Hibbard. There is also a line to Justin Morgan thorugh Red Robin. Lippitt Kate Moro carried some of the very best breeding known to us as Lippitt breeding. Her son Lippitt Morgan all of 14.3 hands was the first Morgan horse to win the grueling Vermont 100 mile Trail ride in Western tack. And not the lightweight synthetic tack of today !
