Treble's Morgan Manor began with a single stallion: Quaker's Acre Treble (for whom the farm was named). His Morgan character and beauty captivated Carol, who at the time was involved in Arabians.

Sired by Trophy's Award (sired by Trophy) and out of Baroosa, by Raymond S Sentney, he was purchased as a yearling stallion from his breeder, Mary Smith, in the spring of 1966. This beautiful and well known stallion was the beginning of Carol's love affair with the Morgan horse, and was the sire of the first horse to carry a Treble's prefix--Trebles Tender Touch (dam of Trebles Wild Affair and SW Regal Mymphett). His breeding career was brief, but included such notable horses as Tequila Sunrise (dam of Trebles Margarita), Dawnhill Alexsis (dam of Sizzle), and Trebles My Treble (dam of Willy N Truly).

Treble sold us on Morgans, but his primary contribution to the look of our horses came through his wonderful daughters, who were used on our next showcase stallion, the beautiful Treble's Willy Wild (pictured at right). Foaled in 1977, he was sired by Windy Hill Willie, a son of Windcrest Music Man (by Waseeka's Nocturne), out of a daughter of Count Benaida Vona (by Upwey Ben Don). Willy's dam was Junehill Fascination, who brought an additional cross to Upwey Ben Don through her sire, Donlyn of Wind-Crest, and added a touch of Brunk through her dam, Orcland Graceful (Ulendon x Grace Graham, by Senator Graham).

Willy not only put Treble's on the map with a star-studded show career in hand and park saddle, but he also sired 150 foals that were each stamped with his extreme beauty. While his sons were sought after for their exotic looks, his daughters quickly became some of the premier producers in recent Morgan history. Probably his most notable offspring is the legendary MO Justa Wild Melody (out of Latours Justa Beauty), who was the dam of multiple World and Regional Champions that include Treble's Unchained Melody, Treble's First A'Flaire, Treble's Wild Memories, Totally In Command, Treble's Spring Loaded, After A Fashion and the outstanding producers Take My Breath Away and HVK Noble Melody.

Other famous names on Willy's list of progeny include Double M Temptation, Willy's Whisper, Willy N' Truly, Double M Blue Velvet, Treble's Margarita, Wild Palm Award, Truly Wild, Trebles Wild Affair, Gradell's Pandora, Willy Remember Me, Gradell's Wild Magic, Wicked Wild, Gradell Wild Sunrise, Gradell's Vigilante, Treble's Hot N Wild, Gradell's Premier, Gradells Wild Reflection, Gulfwind Temptress, Gulfwind Wild Solitaire, Grand Cru Dom Perignon, and of course Gulfwind Sir William.

And then came TUG HILL COMMANDO... the once in a lifetime stallion. Purchased in 1982 as a weanling to cross on our Willy daughters, "Mando" continued the legacy of beautiful horses beyond our wildest expectations. Over 250 sons and daughters of this great horse have populated the registry and hung tricolors, World Champion plaques and coolers on stable tack rooms from coast to coast. Sons like World Champions Mtn Laurel Maximilian, Ultra's Special Agent, Festival Rock N Roll, Chase Manhattan, Treble's Tanqueray and Grand Cru Beaujolais are not only winning national titles, they are siring champions in their image.

Commando has also sired mares that have not only garnered attention in the show ring, but have gone on to have equally impressive careers as producers of top bloodstock. Names like RWJ Commandina (dam of the 2010 Morgan Gala Champion, RWJ Gabbana), Mirador Jenevieve, Treble's Wild Memories, Raintree Red Roses, Ryan's Pure Silk Lady (dam of WC MSV Shooting Star), Cingate Vincent's Song (dam of WCs Cingate Starry Night and Cingate Revelation), Gradell's Work of Art, GLB Temptation Eyes, Pondview Promises Promises, Gradells Seventh Angel, Relentless Charm,Treble's Unchained Melody, Treble's Theme Song, Sizzle, On Fire, Treble's Tickle My Fancy, Rum Brook Veronica, After A Fashion, Weatherwell Commanda, Take My Breath Away, Sabal Chase Cammanda, and of course the beautiful World Champion Mare Ultra's Formal Request.

All of these prestigious titles in the show ring would not have happened without the valuable contributions of the professional trainers we have formed relationships with throughout the years. Many of these gifted horsemen and women have become close friends as well. A very special thank you to Cheri Barber in Reddick, Florida; Luman Wadhams in Warren, Vermont; and Daryl Hopson in Walla Walla, Washington for their friendship, their professionalism and the many World Champion titles they've given us with Treble's Morgan Horses.

In 1982, we sold a beautiful daughter of Willy Wild to a lovely woman named Lisa [Nyberg] Anderson. Little did we know that over the next three years, a cherished friendship would develop. By 1984, Lisa and Treble's Morgan Manor had become synonymous and we partnered many of our wonderful World Champion Morgans. Lisa's MO Justa Wild Melody went on to become one of the breed's greatest producers, recognizable for her several multiple World Champion foals. Lisa's contribution to Treble's is huge, but her contribution to the breed has been even more immeasurable. As the originator of the first Morgan Sire Rating, she wrote the book on quantifying stallion achievements in the breeding shed. She is a walking textbook on bloodlines of horses, and is an astute breeder. Although her life has refocused on many charitible endeavors outside of the horses that are lucky to have her, we will never forget her Morgan involvement and we hope she finds time at some point in the future to return to the breed she so loves.
