CELEBRATING THE WOODBURY STALLIONS BEHIND THE LAMBERT MORGAN
The following stallions are to be found in the pedigree of the contemporary
Lambert foundation stallion: CRITERION.
Most of these stallions are in his six generation pedigree. The Woodburys remain an energetic and strong-going Morgan family, one with the ability to endow its descendants with tenacity and trotting speed, whether it is used on the trotting tracks of the nineteenth century of the competitive trail ridesof the twentieth." Mabel Owen
The venerable Edwin H. Hoffman (1858-1912) refers to Ethan Allen 2nd as belonging to the, 'GREEN MOUNTAIN FAMILY', (DONALD pg.13) which is akin to referring to the family that Daniel Lambert created as the 'LAMBERT FAMILY.' Sad to say that the Lippitt Club, in 1973, chose to change the name of the 'GREEN MOUNTAIN FAMILY' to honor Mr. Knight's mother's maiden name--Lippitt. And then the Lippitt Club proclaimed that the many historic Morgans belonging to the 'GREEN MOUNTAIN FAMILY' were to be refered to as 'LIPPITTS'.
The 'Green Mountain Family' was also well know as the Woodbury Family
and it is how we refer to that historic Morgan family.

THE ANCIENT PEDIGREE OF CRITERION
Fifteen of the above Woodbury stallions appear in Criterion's six generation pedigree. John A. Darling is his grand-sire and Ethan Allen 3rd is his great-grand-sire on his sire's (Jubilee's Courage) pedigree. Ethan Allen 2nd appears twice as does Ethan the 3rd in his sixth generation.
No Morgan in the breed went back to Justin Morgan on his sire line in so few generations, eleven, as did CRITERION. He had as high a percentage of Justin Morgan as any Morgan in the breed.
