Journey of Pride.............Gaited Morgans
 |
We once visited the farm previously owned by Gary's grandfather, William Seibert, outside of Poplar Bluff, Missouri, before purchasing our own Morgans. Grandfather Seibert had owned this farm prior to the turn of the 20th century before he moved to New Harmony, Indiana. William Seibert had died four decades before the birth of Gary. The family Aunts were instrumental in telling the family story of their lives in Missouri and the migration to Indiana. In addition, they told of many happenings on the two farms. This 160 acre Missouri farm had a small one story log home with two bedrooms, a kitchen/dining area and living room. There were remains of an old log barn on the property. |
Gary was born on the Whitehead place outside of New Harmony, Indiana. He grew up within 10 miles of his Grandfather's farm, which later became a part of the Harmony State Park. This farm was just over 100 acres with a two story log home, a very large log barn with corn cribs and graineries. These were torn down for the Park development, but there is still the walking and horse trail marked as "Seibert Hill" as you go pass the old home site. Our current barn is a far cry from the barns of Gary's Grandfather. Hopefully this current barn will have many fond memories for our family, friends, and visitors as those of his Grandfather. There is a legacy of Missouri Gaited Morgans in the Seibert family that spans over three generations. These Missouri Gaited Morgans and their offspring are forming part of the foundation lines for today's Jellico Farms Gaited Morgans. Our first Missouri Morgans were Chandel Laurel and Isabo.
Come visit us in the center of "The Horse Capitol of the World" and see the beautiful bluegrass.--Gary & Sondra
