SCHILLA ch. M, ARABIAN, 1920
| Color: ch
AHR #419
Bred by F.E. Lewis II, Spadra, California
Dr. Bowling’s [mtDNA] study suggested that the identity of the mares Saleefy and Freda were inadvertently switched after 1918 when the mares were shipped by rail from Hingham Stock Farm in Massachusetts to the Diamond Bar Ranch in California. At that time, they were both mature bay mares with minimal white markings. If this switch did occur, then Schilla (registered as a daughter of Saleefy) was actually a daughter of Freda (descended from the the Hamidie horses *Obeyran, *Mannaky, and *Galfia).
