Richard Sell? I think he went Red Angus? Leroy Born? Are the younger Borns still breeding Herefords.. They knew how to spend $$ very well... Tree-Fine Herefords? Mullendore Beef??? Were they at Missoula, MT Post Rock Herefords Waldo, KS? Nunnally? Roy Roberts? Is it true the ranch is now Sub Divided Estates and a Golf course?

Mulledore Ranch is right next to ours outside of Glendive. 2 brothers, Don in Glendive, Bob in Missoula. Were selling bulls from 5 different breeds., hereford included. Don't think they are selling bulls any longer.
Marvin Feddes & Sons (Dan and Tim) is feddes.com. Bought a Go Excel L 18 bull from them a few years ago.
Courtneys no longer have sale, private sales only. Courtneyherefords.com

One old and respected name in the American Hereford history that is not on the several lists here is WHR (Wyoming Hereford Ranch ...).
Does anyone on HT know what happened there?

I think they ran into a small problem. At least that's what some lad in St. Louis told me.

I think Winrock started as Turner Ranch, the in went to Winrock (Winthrop Rockefeller ) then they dispersed and it went commercial. If My memory is correct the Bill Jacobs got the ranch and then after he died it was dispersed.

Turner Ranch owned by Roy Turner had a Dispersal Sale scheduled for early June of 1963. It went as far as Catalog being printed. I have one that I think Paul Stidham gave to me. Winthrop Rockerfeller purchased the Ranch and cattle privately before the scheduled sale. Winrock operated the ranch until January of 1971 when Gene Brinkman and Bob Loughery bought it in its entirety. They also operated LB Ranch at Dexter KS which Bill House later acquired and leased Mullendore Cross Bell Ranch in Osage County and The Stan-De Hereford Ranch south of Nowata which they called Smoke Rise Ranch. Held The Mainstream Dispersal Sale in June of 1972. Sold the Ranch in 75 or 76 to someone I cannot remember. The people who bought it soon sold it again to Roos Cattle Company who were originally out of Texas. They had purchased one of Chapman- Barnard Ranches which bordered Turner Ranch to the north. I don't think they stayed with registered cattle too long. Sold the ranch to Jacobs Family about 1990 I think. I talked to Gene Brinkman last fall. He still sounded pretty good and lives in Arkansas City, KS. He was very good to work for. Gave everyone who worked there a month's pay as a bonus after The Mainstream Dispersal. Last I knew Tom Harris was still near Mill Creek OK and Bob Felton in Ardmore. I am fairly sure Jason Jacobs and his family still own the ranch. I think it is commercial and largely stockers. Quite a good ranch.

The last I knew about WHR The Hales Family still owned part of it but it was for sale. I do not know if they still had any cattle. I think Mrs. Hales was part of The Neilsen Family who bought it from Levy's who bought it in the 50's when it came out of the trust that owned it for a long time.

Interesting thread. Torres's Veladi Ranch infused a lot of money into a few programs but in the was rather short lived. Ronny Lee purchased a lot of the good Line 1 females but don't know what happened to them Carlson's dispersed in the early 2000s I think but don't know what became of Raymond Nelson thought he had some real good ones. Have seen where Jerry Carlson son in law has some registered cattle. Shield Bar had some pretty usable rancher type Line 1 Cloverdale and IOU ranch both had cattle that looked good to me but don't know what happened to them

AEP Was Alvin E Petersen and the son Gene took it over... He had some good Anxiety 4th Cattle and used "The Elephant". L1 Domino N915, 73197 etc... One of the most interesting things there was he sold 30 heifers to Glenkirk and they bred them to Big Northern...The Glen sold some of the heifers back and some to OXO... The result was AEP L1 BIG Northern and the OXO Big Northern... Those two went head to head in the show ring......
Grande-Peterson was Lorrie Peterson and Andy Grande... 73 Denver Champion Golden Treasure GP ( I thought grote and Steen were going to put the Carlson bull up grand but it went the other way)..26 Bar Bought the bull and Jeff Wagner had already purchased 1/2 interest before denver... Jeff spouted off that he may just buy the bull in the sale... Louis Johnson had deeper pockets in the end... They also used AEP L1 Big Northern and a couple of old line Selkirk bulls.. Lorrie sprang off with Beartooth breeding and they just kind of floated away...
Quinta Land and Cattle @ Three Forks MT turned into Madison River Cattle Co... Lloyd Danielson was the herdsman... some of the people there and in the bunk house when Madison River took it over were Ray Hunt and Buck Brannaman. there were a bunch of 4-5 year old gelding that had not been touched...That was fun watching...

Isbell Herefords @ Wilsall, MT ( In the shadow of the sleeping giant) Virgil Isbell was a really good guy.... His obit read... " I never sold my saddle or my tack and I never bred them black"
Dan Landers also at Wilsall.... he sold a big lot of cows to Largents when the moved from Wilsall to Kaycee, WY
PINE CREEK RANCH....Hmmm where do I start....By the time I came along Pine Creek was for sale... Nice set of cattle... John DeLorean (The Car) bought the ranch... he was at the sale wearing a rat skin coat (Mink) and rat skin boots( Some kind of fur) 501 Levis and a white T-Shirt. he was flying pretty high that day... Ended up getting busted for coke somewhere down the line and the ranch sold to Clark Higley and sons. I grew up near them and they were really good farmers with little cattle experience. It was sad because the moved to Salmon, worked their A$$ off and lost it all...

Roy Turner bought the ranch and cowherd of Robert Hazlett. I grew up listening to my Dad talk about how Turner ruined the best herd of the day with Zato Heir. It is fun to read you old guys reminisce, but probably just talking to yourselves. Did anyone see the one segment RFD did on Herefords? Kind of disgusting that our AHA PR crew knows so little about our history they said Marvin Meek was John Wayne's partner in 26 Bar and showed a picture of Wayne and Louis Johnson and identified Johnson as Marvin Meek. Shows how little our Hereford heritage means to our leaders. No wonder they can't see anything special about Herefords.

Made just before he passed away. Herschel Boydstun worked for Roy Turner at one point in time. Gov Turner sent Herschel to Patterson's in North Dakota to buy a brother to HT Tone lad... Herschel got there and found that the bull was a Line Back... herschel always talked about that trip to ND and what hell of a drive it was to come home empty..

Cloverdale is Tom and Judy Cheetham from red stone. Still ranching but all red angus and biggest hereford hater because of line ones. Dave Witt was iou ranch. Passed away couple years back. He had big outfit at sand springs. Lost one son in Iraq and I think another son still running it. No herefords still lots of bad tastes from the line ones also

The Orvis ranch is just up the road from us. Established 1918, brothers Bruce and Jim Orvis split the ranch and cowherd into Orvis Cattle Company and Jim Orvis and Sons. Bruce and Jim died a few years back but both families still have Hereford cattle though OCC is no longer registering calves. I don't know the full story but they got hit hard by IE.

We had a several of the Line 1/ Trask females. Milked like crazy but I culled everyone for bad udders , too much hair and bad feet.. They were 3 year olds. Train wreck... May be the fescue .
