Langford (1855) and Dashaway (1857?) info

For those with interest in early CA thoroughbred history, here is an article which details the racing records of Langford (1855, sire of Thad Stevens) and Dashaway; at least up to that point. I surmise that it is the complete record of Langford. If anyone deems it reliable enough to input, fire away :)

steward,

That was a darn right fine piece of research and equally fun to read.

Thanks
