McCurdy's Confederate Jasmine
Ridden Side Saddle Sept 2005

The first McCurdys were brought to Texas in 1996 by Colleen and Ron Cates, who had lived in Lowndesboro, Alabama for 6 years. "It is like a chapter from Gone With The Wind," says Colleen of the picturesque town of 200 residents and four antebellum churches, which was spared from destruction by Wilson's Raiders during the Civil War.

The Cates developed an appreciation and love for the breed as a result of their friendship with the McCurdy family, and by field trialing extensively in Central Alabama. They observed the disposition, strength, stamina, and gait of the McCurdy horses ridden by many veteran field-trialers and dog handlers.

Ron and Colleen would love for you to come and ride any of the horses for yourself, or just visit and learn more about gaited horses.
