Measuring Morgans. The Morgan Horse Magazine, Jan-Feb 1978
I sorta remember reading this article way back when I got this issue. I did wade thru the entire thing but did not go out and measure any of my horses.

Wesbrook Benfire. The Morgan Horse Magazine. Jan-Feb 1978
Go back a ways into his dam's pedigree. There are some interesting things to study on.
Some of his get did breed on a ways but it appears there is nothing to today.
Royalton Nabob. The Morgan Horse Magazine. Jan-Feb 1978
It appears that he did not sire much or anything as I had to add him to the AllBreed site. I also had to add his sire who did sire a few.
He was 1/2 Lippitt as his dam was full Lippitt.
Sid Spencer and the Colt Pasture. Classic Morgan Admirers. Spring 1990
Sid was a treasure and bred some darn good Morgans.
This article gives a good glimpse of who she was and what she did. Robbie mentions the fire but Sid also lost a chunk of her ranch when the county and state took it to create a resoviour, Lake Lopez.
Patoka Tami Jill. Classic Morgan Admirers. Spring 1990
This lower photo was taken Jan. 2015 when she was 36 years old.
From the AllBreed site.
Full Lippitt with Moro Hills, Royalton, and close-up Lippitt prefix mare on her papers in the first 2 generations.
She is the maternal grand-dam of Morgandy's Melody who had a filly in 2022, Brook Hill Temptation.

Old California Style: with Morgans. by A. Clark McKee. from Classic Morgan Admirers. Spring 1990
By profession, Clark was a photographer (he took the photos of Clarion that I used in ads; he also took the picture of Moro Hills Micah that appeared in one of the registry volumes.)
He was also a lover of the Old California style of Horsemanship.

Royalton Ashline. Classic Morgan Admirers. &. The Morgan Horse Magazine, Jan-Feb 1978
The first page is from TMH, in the Lippitt Club group ad.
The rest of the pages are from Classic Morgan Admirers.
I had asked Clara for something about Roy for this issue; and she came through brilliantly.
He sired many foals and can be found behind Lippitts today.
There is a nice photo of him at the above link.
He sired some with a few breeding on. He has a line down to some Statesman prefix horses, and some Baymont's prefix.
