When it came time to invest in what Roy describes as “foundation mares,” the pedigree of two horses from Indiana caught Reg’s attention.
Green Lea Easter, a yearling mare, and two-year-old mare Green Lea Lynda were purchased from the Indiana Draft Horse Auction in 1956, a pair of full-sisters, sired by Lynnwood Koncarhope, who had a style and quality that Reg admired and a genetic history that included champion show horses with a winning reputation at the RWF.
Over the years, Reg worked to establish his Blackhome Percheron breed line, which Robert notes took time in the days before horse semen could be ordered and shipped for breeding purposes. https://www.wellingtonadvertiser.com/the-black-family-building-a-legacy-of-percheron-pride/
