Indian Bey

There are several unidentified ponies we're looking for information on. If you have any information or pictures of these ponies please contact us!

This chestnut pinto stallion was born in the 1970s and died sometimes after Pony Penning 1995. There's a photo of him as a young stallion in the 1978 book Island of Wild Horses by Jack Denton Scott. Kelly Lidard found the name Indian Bey for him. We don't have an identification number associated with that name so are considering there might be a different registered name for him. He would have had an identification number branded on his left shoulder around 1994. Also looking for any nicknames prior to the registry.

Unknown Bay Pinto Stallion

This bay pinto stallion appears to have been around in the early to mid 1990's. The first photo is from 1994. He likely would have received a name and identification number that year. The number would have been firebranded on his left shoulder. However, there were at least 3 pinto stallions transferred from Maryland that year. Two of them were sold at the 1994 auction. The second (undated) photo is by photographer Medford Taylor and appears in several books.

This chestnut pinto mare appears to have been born in the early 1980s. The right photo is from 1995. The left photo is from 2000 and she disappears from photos after that. We've nicknamed her "Promise of Summer's Mom" as she appears to be the dam of the 1989 mare Promise of Summer. She would have had a registered name and an identification number. The identification number would have been branded on her left shoulder from 1994 onward.

 

 

"The Bridge Stallion"

There are several unidentified ponies we're looking for information on. If you have any information or pictures of these ponies please contact us!

 

This was a stallion in the 70's and 80's. He's pictured in the 1978 book Island of Wild Horses by Jack Denton Scott. He disappears from photos in the late 1980s. We've been calling him The Bridge Stallion. Stallions back then often were called by the area they lived and he usually lived around or under the Assateague causeway bridge. He's too far back to have had a registered name but we were wondering if there were other names he was known by.

1994, 1995, and 1997 Foal Lists

Foal lists from 1994, 1995, and 1997 have been added to Feral Foal Watch. You'll probably notice that they are very short compared to the other years. We don't have auction notes from these 3 years. All ponies listed are owner submissions, have been spotted in photos, or found in other places. We're working on linking photo albums of the foals we have pictures of. There's ponies with unknown parents from those years in the database, however they must have at least one parent to appear on the list.

Foal Photos 2009-2014

Foal photos from 2009 to 2014 are now linked to pony database records.  Thanks to Sarah Boudreau of Chincoteague Pony History for contributing her photos from 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014. Lois Szymanski's auction albums from 2009, 2011, 2012, 2013, and 2014 have been a Chincoteague community resource for many years and she has allowed us to re-host her photos in our archive albums. Thanks to you both!

We're diligently working to link photos of as many Assateague born foals as possible to help make identification of ponies easier. If you have photos you'd like to contribute please contact us!
