Bred by that good Kansas ranch breeder, O E Sutter, both of Leon Silver's parents were bred by the Master breeder, Elmer Brown, Halstead, Kansas. Note the two close crosses to Linsley, a stallion who was a grand sire. The paternal grand sire is Tehachapi Allan, California bred by Roland Hill of Government and Sellman horses. The maternal grand sire, Romanesque, brings in more Sellman. On the bottom mare line, May Hudson was bred by Elmer Brown and brings in Old Midwest from her sire, and from her dam, a cross to Headlight Morgan from when he was in Kansas before going to Texas and Richard Sellman's ranch.
Leon Silver sired for the Dot S ranch program. Some of them are:
--Dot S Beauty, dam for Funquest Morgans.
--Dot S Bell Ann, dam for Funquest Morgans.
--Dot S Fanny, dam for Funquest Morgans.
--Dot S Stareda, bred on to a slender extent.
Leon Silver lives on through his Funquest descendants.
