Charming Jenny [possibly Wyvill's Roan Mare] Charming Jenny is not named in the General Stud Book, however, both Cheny and Pick note that she possessed a name. Her daughter was referred to as the Hampton Court Charming Jenny to distinguish between them. He [Spanker] got the Dam of the Hampton-Court Charming Jenny, which was full Sister to Leeds [Cheny 1744:viii]. Fox Cub, bred as has been observed, by the late Sir Ralph Ashton, of Lancashire; out of a filly bought of the late Mr Leeds, called Charming Jenny, which was out of a Mare of the same Name, of Mr Leeds's, and the foreign Horse that was the Sire of Leeds [Cheny 1744:xxiv]. Fox-Cub was also got by Clumsy; his dam was called Charming Jenny, by Leedes Arabian, out of a mare of Mr Leedes's of the same name, got by an Arabian [Pick 1:12]. The last noted Arabian would have been Pelham's Bay Arabian, more commonly called Spanker.https://www.bloodlines.net/TB/Families/Family6-II.htm
