Upwey Ben Don Ads #2

This show gelding was out of a good Western Working Family mare who was bred by E. W. Roberts of Hi Pass, San Diego Co. CA. Roberts was a noted breeder who bred many excellent Morgans. Liz Taylor was by Bikini, a lightly used stallion by the great Blackman and out of a Elmer Brown mare, Linsley Belle, by Linsley and out of Donbelle. This was a solid, multi-generation strong producing mare line. Liz Taylor's dam was Lizieayr, bred in Colorado, by Jack Sprat and out of another Elmer Brown mare, Elma Belle R. M. (Romanesque x Sparbelle). Liz Taylor went from California to Vermont in a group of mares from the Hi Pass Ranch when the Eastern breeders wanted the substance, type, and good conformation these mares had. 

Here is the bottom mare line again being Liz Taylor.

He sired some. Again, the good mare, Liz Taylor.

Sired a bunch. Out of the Government bred mare, Ingrid (Mansfield x Urnice--Bennington x Carolyn, who was the Old Vermont lines found behind Ben Don's dam lines.

sired some. His sire Kingston was out of Junefield (Mentor x Ambition). Ambition was out of Quietude, dam of Upwey Ben Don. Nightwatch's dam was out of Colony Maid (Colonel Dygert x Selection) who was a good producer with much old high percent blood.

Sire of many. Out of a mare who was a good producer and of pure Government breeding. 

Rockette was out of the western bred Varga Girl (Highview King x Lucky) bred by L. U. Sheep Co. of Wyo. with lots of Brunk. Donna was out of  Justina Morgan, another western bred mare from Hi Pass, also by Blackman and with Brunk behind her dam.

Sired a few. His dam Starlet was a good producer. Starlet was by Starfire (Another L. U. Sheep Co. Morgan) and out of Ben Don's Sister, Upwey Benn Quietude.

Went on to much show ring success & a sire of many. His dam was out of the great mare, Seneca Sweetheart. His sire was out of Ben Don's sister, U. Benn Quietude.
