Rockingham pedigrees

Pedigrees from WWM/R193 (Sheffield Archives, 52 Shoreham Street, Sheffield S1 4SP, England)

Lord Rockingham's first appearance on the turf dates from 1752 when he started 4 horses: (1) a bay filly by Cade, her dam by the Lonsdale Arabian; (2) Scampton Cade, also got by Cade; (3) Silver Leg, by the Earl of Portmore's Cartouch, his dam by Old Cartouch; and (4) Yorkshire Jack, got by Jack come Tickle me. After that he continued to race horses, mostly of his own breeding every year, until his death in 1782.

The collection of pedigrees in WWM/R193 suggests that he made a considerable effort to obtain and keep the pedigrees of the horses he purchased. Please see the transcription page for the original wording.

Note that "GSB", not otherwise qualified, refers to volume 1, 5th ed, 1891.

1.	Badger Mare	.	R193/2
Grey Mare by Badger (Partner out of a Woodcock mare) - Almanzor (Son of Darley's Arabian) - full sister to Bay Bolton and Lamprey

Not in GSB, although her dam (or a sister) is, see p 22: ALMANZOR MARE (sister to Spinner), Bred by Mr OSBALDESTON, her dam a full sister to Bay Bolton, by Grey Hautboy; the sister to Spinner is noted as dam of 3 foals by Partner (sire of Badger) for Mr Osbaldeston. Also see R193/37

.
2.	Whitenose Colt	.	R193/3
Bay Colt by Whitenose, out of Steady, an unbroke gr m, by Steady (Son of Devonshire Childers out of a Grantham mare): the Steady mare came from Miss Egerton

It does not appear that this colt ever started for Lord Rockingham Not in GSB, but see p 204, for probable sister: Lord Portmore's 1754 gr f by Whitenose, out of STEADY MARE, Bred by Lord PORTMORE, in 1746, her dam by Crab, out of the (Egerton) Nanny, by the Pigot Turk.

.
3.	Whitenose Colt	.	R193/3 R193/36?
Brown Colt by Whitenose, out of a fleabitten gr m by Lord Portmore's Crab - a light grey natural Barb mare given to Lord Portmore by the Duke of Marlborough and he had her near 20 years ago from the Earl of Harrington (R193/3) by Whitenose, out of a daughter of Crab (R193/36)

Not in GSB, but probably a descendant of the Natural Barb Mare that was grandam of Lord Portmore's Tiney (1756 gr c) and dam of the MARLBOROUGH MARE (dam of Warwickshire Wag); see GSB p 123.

.
4.	Oroonoko Colt, half brother to Brilliant Chesnut Colt, [foaled 1753]	14 Nov 1754 (Portmore, London) 2 Nov 1754, list sold by Lord Portmore to Lord Rockingham	R193/3 R193/35 R193/36
Chestnut Colt by Oroonoko - Godolphin Arabian - Coke's dun m by the Bald galloway - Akaster Turk (sire of Chanter); this colt's dam also dam of Mr Crofts' Brilliant, 1754 (R193/3) by Oroonoko; dam out of the late Ed Cokes Dun mare, called Silverlocks, by the Bald Galloway; out of a daughter of the Akaster Turk (R193/35) by Oroonoko, out of the Dun Godolphin Arabian Mare (dam of Crofts Brilliant) (R193/36)

This colt may have raced as a 5 year old in August 1758 as Osmar (his pedigree given as got by Oroonoko) when he ran 4th of 5 starters in the Great Sweepstakes of 500gs at York. In October 1758, Lord Rockinghams' Brilliant, won the Noblemens Subscription of 300gs for 5 year olds. He was identified in the matches to come in both Pond and Heber as by Oroonoko, out of the dam of Brilliant. In October 1759, Lord Rockingham's chesnut horse, Young Brilliant, got by Oroonoko lost a match for 300gs at Newmarket to Mr Shaftoe's Alcides; Lord Rockingham's Young Brilliant started twice more in 1760 without winning. In GSB, p 93, a colt of the same age and breeding is identified as the Duke of Northumberland's. In Pond 1756 there is a list of the horses entered, "then rising 6 year olds" in a Sweepstakes Match for 3000gs at Newmarket Easter Week of 1759; this list includes "The Right Hon the Earl of Northumberland's Colt, got by Oroonoko, out of Brilliant's Dam." Heber 1756 has the same list and describes the entrants as "now 3 years old". It is not known if there was some arrangement by which Lord Northumberland could engage Lord Rockingham's colt in such a match; in any case, the colt entered by Lord Northumberland did not start. GSB, p 183: SILVERLOCKS, Bred by Mr AYSCOUGH, in 1725, got by the Bald Galloway - Akaster Turk - Leedes - Spanker; she is also shown on p 1 as produce of the AKASTER TURK MARE (sister to Chaunter) and dam of Roxana. The pedigree in GSB follows Cheny (see his Racing Calendars for 1745 & 1746) where the pedigree of Silver-locks was given as got by the Bald Galloway, her dam by the Akaster Turk (Sire of Chanter), her grand dam by Leeds, her great grand dam by Spanker; however, Cheny did not go so far as to say that Silverlocks and Roxana were sisters. As noted in R193/35 some 10 years later, there appears to have been doubt that the pedigree of Silverlocks extended beyond her dam by the Akaster Turk. Silver Locks was a broodmare in Lord Godolphin's Stud (see C M Prior, The Royal Studs of the Sixteenth and Seventeenth Centuries, 1935). Her foals recorded there were: 1734, a bay colt by Whitefoot - given to R^d Boys in 1738 1735, a bay colt by Whitefoot - Mr Edward Salter had this Colt in 1739 1737, a bay filly by Whitefoot - sold to M^r Poole in 1740 1738, a dun filly by the [Godolphin] Arabian - sold to Mr Huske in 1743 and dam to Mr Crofts Dun Colt y^t won Ipswich King's Plate, and Huntington 4 year old, and Newmarket 4 year old Plates in 1745 [should be 1754], and was called Brilliant, by Crab 1739, a dun filly by the Arabian - put into ye Stud, and sold to M^r Popham ye 18th Dec^r, 1748 in foale by Dormouse Brother [she had 3 foals before being sold: 1745 b c by Hobgoblin, 1747 b c by Snip, 1748 b f by Snip] 1740, a dun colt, by Saucebox - sold to James Larkin in 1744 1741, a dun filly by the Arabian - sold to James Larkin in 1744 1742, a dun colt call'd Buffcoat - he was taken bad with ye wind Collick ye 13^th August, 1754, and dyed ye 14^th, 20 Minutes before Elleven o'Clock There is no pedigree given for Silverlocks in Lord Godolphin's records, but the pedigree of her daughter the Dun Mare was given as "got by my Lord's Arabian, her dam, by ye Bald galloway, her grandam by ye Acaster Turk, & out of a mare that S^r Will^m Lowther vallued much." Lord Godolphin's stud-book had been kept originally by or for Mr Edward Coke, the records passing to Lord Godolphin when the horses did. The pedigree given for Roxana there is "got By ye Bald galloway, Her dam by L^d Carlisle's white Turk. Her g^r dam was Sir Will^m Strickland's Old Blunder mare." If Roxana and Silverlocks were indeed, full sisters, it seems odd that there is no comment to that effect.

5.	Selima Bay Mare, [foaled 1750]	Certificate & Pedigree from W Osbaldeston, dated 9 Aug 1755	R193/4 R193/37

Bay Mare by Bajazet; dam by Bloody Buttocks; grandam by Almanzor; g grandam (own sister to Bay Bolton and Lamprey) by Sir William Strickland's Hautboy; g g grandam by Makeless; g g g grandam (dam of Ocklam Merlin, and grandam to [Terror]) by Brimmer; g g g g grandam by Diamond; g g g g g grandam full sister to Old Merlin's dam

Not in GSB, although her grandam (or a sister) is, see p 22: ALMANZOR MARE (sister to Spinner), Bred by Mr OSBALDESTON, her dam a full sister to Bay Bolton, by Grey Hautboy.
and p 10: Mr Osbaldeston's, of Hunmanby, b f by Almanzor, out of GREY HAUTBOY MARE (sister to Bay Bolton), Bred by Sir M PIERSON, her dam by Makeless - Brimmer - Diamond - sister to Old Merlin, by Bustler.

Also NOTE:
Grey Hautboy was evidently also known as Sir Wm Strickland's Hautboy.
Identification of Ocklam [Acklem] Merlin's dam as the same as Terror's grandam, a mare by Brimmer - Diamond - full sister to Old Merlin's Dam. Based on the owners' names it seems likely that the Terror referred to was Sir W Strickland's by the Akaster Turk out of Mr Brewster's, formerly Sir M Pierson's "famous" (OLD) HAUTBOY MARE, dam also of Almanzor, Terror and Champion (GSB, p 11)

.
6.	Old Worlock	.	R193/6
Old Worlock got by the Bald Galloway / Mr Metcalf

This appears to be related to (perhaps a corrupted version) of the pedigree in GSB see p 219: WARLOCK GALLOWAY, Got by Snake, out of Old Lady (sister to the Carlisle Gelding), by the Bald Galloway. and p 15: OLD LADY (sister to The Carlisle Gelding), Bred by Lord CARLISLE, got by the Bald Galloway, her dam, The Wharton Mare, by the Carlisle Turk - Byerly Turk.

.
7.	Fair Star Bay Mare [foaled 1733]	Pedigree from Byram, 23 Oct 1751; mare covered in 1751 by old Starling	R193/7
Bay Mare by Lord Lonsdale's Bay Arabian - Bay Bolton - Darley Arabian - Byerley Turk - Taffolet Barb - Place's white Arabian - a natural Barb mare

GSB, p32: Fair Star, by The Lonsdale Bay Arabian, out of BAY BOLTON MARE (sister to Bonny Lass), Bred by Sir W RAMSDEN, her dam by Darley's Arabian - Byerly Turk - Taffolet Barb - Place's White Turk - Natural Barb Mare. Fair Star produced for Lord Rockingham, a Colt by Cade (matched 1757, October Meeting, Newmarket)

.
8.	Sophy Bay Filly [foaled 1748]	Pedigree from Byram, 23 Oct 1751	R193/7
Bay Filly by Cade, out of a full sister to Fair Star

Not in GSB Sophy, produced for Lord Rockingham a chestnut colt by Tartar, about 1758, and as many as 3 brown colts by Sampson, engaged in various matches for Lord Rockingham, 1770-1773. Given the span of years she belonged to Lord Rockingham, this list is likely to be incomplete.

.
9.	Young Greyhound Mare	"about 15 years old"	R193/8
Mare by young Greyhound, out of Doll, by Ld Darcy's Woodcock; her dam the Moonah Mare, by a Barb in that country (brought over in the same manner as the Royal African her brother; both were foaled at Hampton Court in the King's Stud)

GSB, p9: see under DOLL, this is probably the dam of Comet and Skewcap.

.
10.	Babram Filly Grey Filly [foaled 1752]	Agreement to hire to Lord Rockingham, dated at Weybridge [Lord Portmore] 30 Oct 1754	R193/10
Grey Filly by Babram - (Lord Portmore's) Spinner - (Lord Portmore's) Old Crab - Darley Arabian mare, owned by the late Earl of Essex and purchased from Esqr Draper, out of Drapers [Tituen] bred by Mr Thompson of Marston, out of Old Milkey, bred by old Mr Leeds; Spinner, by Old Almanzor, and out of a full sister to Bay Bolton and Lamprey

Not in GSB; see next.

.
11.	Whitenose Filly Grey Filly [foaled 1752]	Weybridge, 30 Oct 1754	R193/10
Grey Filly by Whitenose, out of the above daughter of Spinner

From the above document, it appears that a Spinner mare, probably belonging to Lord Portmore was dam of 1752 gr f by Babram 1754 gr f by Whitenose The pedigree of the Whitenose filly appears to be almost the same as that for Miss Stamford (1754) Whitenose filly, out of mare by Spinner - Old Crab - Darley's Arabian - [Tituen], bred by Mr Thompson of Marston - Old Milkey Miss Stamford* by Whitenose, dam by Spinner - Crab - Darley's Arabian - Faustina, a daughter of Mr Thompson's Old Milkey (Introduction to a General Stud-Book, 1791, p 87; General Stud-Book, 1793, p 166) * Pick says foaled "about the year 1754" (Turf Register, ii, 1805, p 260) In addition, Pick's note about this Faustina (p 432) echoes the language of the document in Lord Rockingham's collection: FAUSTINA, (great great grandam of Miss Stamford) was bred by Mr THOMPSON, of Marston, near York, and out of a mare called Old Milkey, who was a noted good runner.--Miss Stamford was a GREY mare,and not a chesnut, as stated in page 260 of this volume. OLD MILKEY was bred by Mr LEEDES, of North-Milford, Yorkshire, and sold, when young, to Mr THOMPSON. In the most recent edition of volume 1 of GSB (1891), the pedigree of Miss Stamford ends with Faustina. However, the entry for Mr Jenison's Faustina (p 85) implies that it is this Faustina who is ancestress of Miss Stamford, since her produce includes a f by the Darley Arabian (Mr Jennison's of Walworth) which "bred a f to Crab, which was the dam of a f by Spinner." FAUSTINA, Bred by Mr CURWEN, in 1725, got by Hartley's Blind Horse, her dam by Blossom (son of the Curwen Bay Barb) - Pulleine's Arabian - Vintner Mare. Of interest is that in the edition of the Newcastle Courant for July 21-23, 1712, the list of the Mares to run for the Queen's Plate at Hambleton included 2 mares called Milkey - Sir William St Quintin's bay mare, and Sir Ralph Milbank's grey mare.

.
12.	Badger Colt	from [Mitch], Wakefield, 22 Apr 1752; labelled "Hitch's Mare"	R193/11
Colt by Badger, out of a Mare got by Vavasour's Black Tom; grandam by Tifter, out of a mare descended from Lord Fairfax's Morocco Arabian

Not in GSB. The Badger Colt is not known to have been raced by Lord Rockingham, so perhaps did not meet with his approval.

.
13.	Son of Ruffler Mare	from [Mitch], Wakefield, 22 Apr 1752; labelled "Hitch's Mare"	R193/11
Mare by a Son of Ruffler, out of the dam of the above colt; in foal to Regulus

Not in GSB In 1756, Lord Rockingham raced a grey filly by Regulus whose dam was not noted; perhaps her dam was this mare by a Son of Ruffler.

.
14.	Roan Gelding	from H. Witham; labelled "Huntress / The Roan Gelding's full sister"	R193/16
Gelding by a Country Stallion known as Robert Rowley's Roan Horse, out of a mare belonging to Mr Wilson; she had a good deal of blood

Probably not considered Thoroughbred; not in GSB.

.
15.	Bay Mare 8 years old	from H. Witham; labelled "Huntress / The Roan Gelding's full sister"	R193/16
Mare by the same Robert Rowley's Roan Horse, out of the own sister to the dam of Lord Rockingham's gelding

Probably not considered Thoroughbred; not in GSB. In April 1754, "the Marquiss of Rockingham's Bay Filly, got by a foreign Horse of his Lordships, and out of a Hunting Mare" forfeited a Match against the Marquiss of Hartington's Bay Colt, full Brother to Hector (Heber 1753; Pond 1752, & 1753). Perhaps her dam was the mare called "Huntress."

.
16.	Another Mare	from H. Witham; labelled "Huntress / The Roan Gelding's full sister"	R193/16
Mare by a Coach Horse, out of the dam of the Roan Gelding

Probably not considered Thoroughbred; not in GSB.

.
17.	Blaze	Printed advertisement dated 1 Apr 1749, Beverley	R193/18
Blaze, bred by Mr Panton and got by the Devonshire Childers, out of the Confederate Filly, by Grantham; her dam by the late Duke of Rutland's black Barb, out of a mare called Bright's Roan, bred by Mr Leedes, and got by his Turk, which got Bay Leeds; her dam by Willoughby; grandam by Dodsworth, out of the famous running Roan Mare of Sir Christopher Wivill's

GSB, p 62: Mr Panton's Blaze (1733 b c) by Childers, out of CONFEDERATE FILLY, Got by Grey Grantham (son of Brownlow Turk) - Duke of Rutland's Black Barb - Bright's Roan, bred by Mr Leedes and said to be got by the Arabian, sire of Leedes. NOTE the extension of the pedigree for Blaze. It is tempting to speculate that Sir Christopher Wivill's "famous running Roan Mare" was an ancestor of the "famous roan mare of Sr Mar: Wyvill's" recorded by Cuthbert Routh as the great grandam of Childers (C M Prior, Early Records of the Thoroughbred Horse, 1924, p28). 2 other pedigrees which mention "Willoughby" are (1) 1748 b c by Regulus - Lord Lonsdale's Bay Arabain - Snake - Duke of Rutland's Grey Turk - Hautboy - Bustler - the Willoughby Barb - a mare brought from Bolton Castle in the Time of the Grand Rebellion (see R193/64) (2) Mr DYER's DIMPLE, bred by Mr LEEDES, and got by his Arabian, (sire of Leedes); his dam, Old Sophonisba, by Spanker; grandam by Dodsworth, out of Lord Willoughby's Barb Mare (W Pick, Turf Register, i, 48).

.
18.	Regulus Colt Bay Colt [foaled 1755]	from William Thornton, 28 Aug 1759, York	R193/20
Colt by Regulus; dam by Sedbury; grandam by Goliah

Not in GSB; not identified In 1760, Lord Rockingham's bay colt, by Regulus, out of a daughter of Sedbury (see Heber 1759, future matches, for pedigree) forfeited a Match Easter-Week at Newmarket.

.
19.	Bellina Bay Filly [foaled 1747]	from Gabriel Hanger, Dryffield, 17 Jun 1752 mentions a full sister (by Second) & other fillies out of Mr Hangar's brown mare by Stanyan's Arabian; one by Marksman, & 3 by Whitefoot, sold to Lord Leigh	R193/21 R193/50
Mare by Second, out of a brown mare by Stanyan's Arabian at Hampton Court; Gipsey, bred by Sir Ralph Milbank, and got by King William's Black barb without a Tongue; out of Sir Ralph's black mare bred by Mr Darcy, and got by Makeless, out of one of his best Royal Mares (R193/21) Mare by Second; out of the dam of Lord Leigh's Molly and Diana, bred at Hampton Court, got by Stanyer's Arabian; her dam by the Black tongueless Barb of King William's; g grandam Sir Ralph Milbanke's Gipsy (dam of Hartley's Blind Horse, and Drogheda's Othello), by Makeless. In foal to old Starling (R193/50)

See GSB, p 200 STANYAN'S ARABIAN MARE, Bred by Mr HANGER, her dam, Gipsey, by King William's Barb-without-a-tongue, out of Sir R Milbanke's Makeless Mare, which was the dam of Hartley's Blind Horse. Also see Charming Molly & Diana. Produce of the Stanyan's Arabian Mare, as given by Mr Hanger (see R193/21) differs from the list in GSB: 1740 br f Diana, by Whitefoot ... Lord Leigh 1742 br f Charming Molly, by Whitefoot ... Lord Leigh br f by Whitefoot ... sold from Lord Leigh's Stud to Lord Eglinton, Jan 1749; later Sir James Lowther's 1747 [b] f by Second ... probably Lord Rockingham's Bellina 1748 br f by Second 1749 f by Marksman If the resulting foal mentioned in R193/50 was Pretty Polly, the date of this certificate would have been about 1750 or early 1751; and indicate that Bellina was foaled in 1747. Also NOTE the ambiguous reference which may indicate that Lord Drogheda's Othello (son of Greyhound) was out of Sir Ralph Milbank's Makeless Mare.

Mare by Ld Cullen's Arabian; dam (a chesnut mare) sold to Charles Sedley, said to be a daughter of Partner, and once to have belonged to Lord Weymouth, running in his possession (R193/27) A Bay Mare by the Cullen Arabian; her dam a Brood Mare of Sir Charles Sedley's (her pedigree not ascertained); a fine Colt foal at foot got by the Brother to Tarquin [Lord Rockingham's Godolphin Hunter] and covered again by the same horse (R193/53)

Basheba had a colt by the Godolphin Hunter (named for the 1200gs at Newmarket, Easter Week 1764) (Heber 1763), possibly the same or a brother to the foal mentioned in the sales list (R193/53) (see R193/34a for Godolphin Hunter, a brother to Tarquin) Basheba and her dam are not identified, and probably not in GSB. The only chesnut mare found to have been raced by Lord Viscount Weymouth from the Racing Calendars, was Jenny-come-tye-me in 1735; however, she was the 1729 "Chesn^t mare, gott by Childers, and out of Northern Nanny", sold by Cuthbert Routh to Lord Portmore, October 1734; she won the King's Plates at Hambleton in 1734, and Lewes and Winchester in 1735.

Pedigree of the Spectacle Mare - dam of Tarquin - Hill Forsters now Sr Ralph Gores Stallion and also dam of my Godolphin Hunter The Spectacle Mare - was got by ye Scarborough Colt - her dam by the Pelham Tifter (Sire also of ye Garnet Mare) - her G: dam (the Snake Mare) was got by Old Tifter, her gt: G: dam by Snake Gt: Gt: G: dam by Pooley's Diamond, her gt: gt: gt: g: dam by Hautboy, her Gt: Gt: Gt: Gt: G: dam by Bustler, her Gt: Gt: Gt: Gt: Gt: G: dam by Old Woodcock out of one of Sr Jonathan Jenning's Mares; which Mare was of the Royal Kind at Sedbury. (R193/34a) Tifter was bred by Sir ... Parsons and got by the Thoulouse Barb (sire of Bagpipe and the Panton Molly's dam); Tifter's dam (according to Lord Godolphin) a sister in blood to Leeds; Tifter's dam (according to Mr Crofts) got by Counsellor; grandam by Brimmer; g grandam by Dickey Pearson (Son of Old Dodsworth); g g grandam a Burton Barb Mare The Scarborough Mare got by Makeless; her dam (a mare of Sir Marmaduke Wyvill's father's called Thisbe) by Brimmer Belgrade the 2d got by the Belgrade Turk; his dam by Bay Bolton, [out of the Scarborough Mare] Makeless was got by General Oglethorpe's Arabian; dam by Lord D'Arcy's Yellow Turk; out of a natural Barb Mare which Sir Jno Lawson (a Sea Admiral) bought from Barbary and gave to King Charles, who gave her to Lord d'Arcy (R193/49)

Sir Marmaduke Wyvill had 3 mares which appear in the records of Lord Godolphin's Stud as reproduced in C M Prior's The Royal Studs of the Sixteenth and Seventeenth Centuries, 1935. Two were identified as Volunteer's Sister, and Bashaw's Sister. The third mare is listed only as Sir M Wyvill's Mare. She had the following produce in the Godolphin Stud. 1745: April ye 24^th. A Bay Colt Fole, no white, by the [Godolphin] Arabian -- Sold to Mr Greevill in Nov: 1748, called Swiftsure² 1746: April ye 10^th. A Bay Colt Foale, by the Arabian -- This Colt's Dam was sent to Sir M: Duke's in October, 1746 in Fole, which Fole return'd Here in Sep: 1748, in exchange for ye above Colt being then two year old: ye younger Brother which was Brought from Sir M: Duke's My Lord sold to M^r Popham, and taken from Hence ye 11^th February, 1749/50 1747: A Bay Colt Foale, by the Arabian -- This Colt sold to M^r Popham, 11^th Feb., 1749 The above pedigree of the Spectacle Mare, appears to be that of the 3rd mare of Sir Marmaduke's, which was bred to the Godolphin Arabian; her produce there being Tarquin, Lord Rockingham's Godolphin Hunter, and another horse, which probably was in Ireland at some point, given that both Hill Forster and Sir Ralph Gore raced there. NOTE the pedigree given for Makeless. GSB, p382 says MAKELESS, by the Oglethorpe Arabian; and p389, OGLETHORPE ARABIAN (sire of Makeless). This may be the horse described as Mr Oglethorpe’s son of the Yellow Turk. Based on the above pedigree in Lord Rockingham’s collection, it seems more likely that “Mr Oglethorpe’s son of the Yellow Turk” was a brother to the dam of Makeless. Also NOTE that Lord Godolphin and Mr Crofts had different information about the dam of Tifter. ¹The pedigree recorded in this document, by or for Lord Rockingham, is that of the Spectacle Mare, but the "label" indicates that the pedigree is of interest because of the bay colt foaled in 1747. Lord Godolphin's records correspond nicely with Lord Rockingham's list of the produce of the Spectacle Mare, and where the Godolphin record provides only the foaling year of the 3rd colt, Lord Rockingham gives an exact date, for his colt, the Godolphin Hunter. ²This is the horse later known as Tarquin as may be seen from Heber 1751 (matches to be run at the Newmarket Spring Meeting 1752): "Duke of Ancaster's b h Tarquin (late Fulk Grevill's Swiftsure) 6yo, by the Godolphin Arabian vs Mr Josiah Marshall's ch h Little Driver, aged, by Driver."

Lord Rockingham may have started the resulting foal at Newmarket in October 1759. His brown colt got by Whitenose, out of a daughter of Crab (Heber 1758) was beaten in a Match for 300gs by the Duke of Devonshire's Chesnut Mare (Heber 1759).

35.	[Godolphin Colt] Bay Colt [foaled 1753]	from Lord Godolphin, London, 10 Apr 1755	R193/38
Colt by my Arabian, out of the Sister to Volunteer

As noted below (see R193/62) it looks as if Lord Rockingham owned colts out of 2 different sisters to Volunteer. One mare's career as a broodmare is documented in the records of Lord Godolphin's stud as reproduced in Prior's The Royal Studs of the Sixteenth and Seventeenth Centuries, 1935. Her first 2 foals by the Godolphin Arabian are noted as Sir M: Wyvill's; 2 more foals were recorded before a note of her sale to the Duke of Cumberland in March 1754. This appears to be the mare on p3 of GSB, where her 1754 produce by the Godolphin Arabian is noted as Miss Windsor. The 1753 bay colt appears in the Lord Godolphin's records with the note "...sold to L^d Rockingham, 13^th April, 1755." Lord Rockingham engaged this colt in Matches in 1758 and 1759, but he appears to have started only in April 1759 at Newmarket in a Sweepstakes Match for 3000gs (one 4 mile Heat over the Beacon Course), when he placed 2d of 6 entries. His pedigree was variously given as by Oroonoko, out of Volunteer's sister (Heber 1759); by Lord Godolphin's late Arabian, out of Volunteer's Sister (Heber 1758, matches to come) and as by the Godolphin Arabian out of Valentine's sister (Pond 1757, matches to come). After his brief turf career, this colt seems to have retired to Lord Rockingham's Stud, where he was known as the Godolphin Colt. See GSB, p4: Marquis of Rockingham's 1754 c The Godolphin Colt, by [the Godolphin Arabian], out of Y BELGRADE MARE (another sister to Volunteer). The lists of the produce of the sisters of Volunteer need revision, (see R193/62).
