Thanks for the note; I'll have to look for the episode!



We purchased a ram lamb from Cheryl Terrano at SAFF - sired by St. Jude's
Tevin. Looking forward to the new bloodlines! Peg

Subject: [Jacob-list] Wentworth Woodhouse; a country house



PBS has had a series on the English country house here in our local market
and did a special on Wentworth Woodhouse. While much of the program was on
the estate and the house, part of the program dealt with the era surrounding
the third Earl Fitzwilliam; the lord of the estate that gave the first
written account of the name "Jacob sheep" in the wool clip of 1834. One can
understand viewing the expanse of country house and grounds, why sheep were
lawn mowers. Fred Horak
