Go Hawk is an excellent example of the Old Midwest Family. That family came from descendants of Black Hawk who came to the Midwest early on.
from the AllBreed site--
Color: sm blk
Height: 15.3
AMHA #7457
Registered Black, but based on progeny, had to have been a smoky black; no markings, 15.3, 1100 lbs.
Foaled 6/5/1923, Dixon, Iowa. Breeder: Henry Schlotfeldt.
Registered Morgan progeny: 5 colts, 19 fillies.
Mostly traces to Sherman Black Hawk 51, a good son of Vt Black Hawk 20. (Good stock with speed and trotters with records.) From an old-fashioned fast trotting strain of Morgans-good cross on Jubilee King Mares--H.B. Greenwalt. Unfortunately, Go Hawk sired no more registered Morgans after he was sold to a wealthy party in Connecticut at the age of six. Nevertheless, he sired many good mares who bred on. However, if his son Flyhawk had been his only offspring, Go Hawk would have been long and gratefully remembered. Flyhawk simply stands as one of the great sires in the history of the Morgan breed.--

Go Hawk also sired many good mares who bred on. Some of these are:
Allestra, Gi-Za-Ne, Gildia, Gizea, Gojea, Golite, Gosette, Kalara, Madonna, Nala, Noxa, Rugee, Tirzo. Many have lines down to today. Go Hawk also sired Herodon who sired some who come down.
