Ditto Foxman. I always believed there was a lot more of the Forsythe and De Cordova dogs bred up in those Maloney dogs and some of those other dog men's yard than was let on. I also believe there is some Orbie Coplin blood way back there in those early bred Patrick dogs and some Creel-Carver breeding in some of those older bred Charleston S.C. swamp dogs. One of the best breeding's that Crews and Burns made was when they crossed their dogs with some of the Plumber's Alligator blood line through the Hammonds/Kreshner dogs.

Just my thoughts on older day happenings. No way to prove anything one way or the other and does not matter anymore. Why the parents and grand parents of any dog still are the best guide to go by. Twelve or fourteen generations down the road who knows what was bred to what. LOL Cheers
