When talking with Pat she'll point out that it's
important to remember that as the Morgan horse was gaining
popularity in the 40's, and 50's it was often difficult to find
quality mares. The first Morgans that the Longs brought to the
farm were two mares...Ginger Mildan (purchased from Bill Fritz of
Churchville and out of Ruthven's Mildred Ann by Allen's Major), and Ruby
Hawk (out of Kitty Hawk by Roubidoux.) A third mare -
Vixen (out of Althea by
Virgil) followed. Here she talks about her first mares...Ginger Mildan and Ruby Hawk. |
