    RE: [RC] Pedigrees - Teri Hunter


    Lif,
    
    Thanks for your help.  I only have two horses to do.  Both have top sides of
    Aladdinn.  Bottoms are different.  But it is very, very interesting.  I have
    traced back to the Desert Bred in the CD but that's where the trail ends.  I
    will now hit the books.  If I can find some.  There is a site that is pretty
    interesting.  I will give you the page that I am on but I think it is in the
    middle.  They have the database separated into Straight Egyptian and
    Non-Straight Egyptian.

    Thanks again,
    
    Teri

    This is what I did for my stallion, Ben Nasrif:  Use your CD and keep
    looking up the pedigrees of each ancestor.  Eventually you come back to
    "Desert Bred" and the pedigree stops there.  At that point you have to
    start getting crafty.  Record each of the Desert Bred horse's names and
    then you have to hit the books that the Arabian Horse Trust have - some of
    the editions of the old books written about the days when the Wentworths
    and such were running around Arabia buying horses.  Unfortunately some of
    these books are expensive - would be nice if you could get them through an
    interlibrary loan but don't know if that's possible.  I believe that
    there's a library in Norco CA devoted to horses, or of course you could
    take a trip to Colorado and check out the Trust libarary!  You have to look
    through for each horse's name in the  book of your choice.  It's
    fascinating reading.
    
    Carol Mulder has a series of books out about the foundation horses of the
    Arabian breed as well.
    
    I don't know of any sites on the internet that have this info - I'd love to
    find out about them if they exist!  If you find out a better way of doing
    it than I have done, please let me know!
