According to the Louisville Courier-Journal, the Ethel that placed in the 1891 Kentucky Oaks was owned by E Corrigan and she was by Longfellow out of Sisterly. She's in ASB vol 6 under her dam on p 960.
The Ethel in the PQ database is by Springbok out of Lavena. Could you please fix this?
Thanks!

Re: 1891 Kentucky Oaks - Ethel
The performance record in the entry for Ethel by Springbok is as given in Simpson (1951) but this wouldn't be the first error I've found there. Other more contemporaneous sources confirm the ref. in the C-J and indicate that at the KY Oaks is not the only blacktype attributed to Ethel by Springbok that actually belongs to Ethel by Longfellow. Thanks.
