The information at the above link says that he had 34 crosses to Justin Morgan. I did not count them, but I did take some time to go back into the pedigree and see that there are indeed a lot of crosses back to Justin. He has a lovely close-breeding pedigree of early Morgan horses and is an excellent example of the Old Midwest Family.
He sired 20 registered Morgans, and who knows how many that were not registered in those days and how many from non-Morgan mares.
His breeder, T P Royce, bred many good ones.
His get include these horses who come down to today: Cardinal, Golden Honey, Herod Golddusty, Kitty Edna, Midnight Beauty, Miga, Rosevelt, and Royce. Others were used in various breeding programs that did not make it to today.
