Talk:North Devon cattle

message: Uhhh.. I got to this page (about cattle) from a "ruby red grapefruit" link. I don't think the two are related!!!
*I went through and tried to fix this, got everything for now but they might pop up again as I did nothing to create a disambiguation page but merely broke the links.  It might help if this article were renamed North Devon (cattle) and we also created Ruby Red (disambiguation).--Doug.(talk • contribs) 02:41, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  What links here 

message: This is a very important breed, both historically and as a heritage breed (important for their genetic material).  However, WP:AGRICULTURE has a huge scope and individual breeds never rate very high on the importance scale.  If ever there is a Livestock project or task force or a cattle task force this might be of of mid to high importance to that group.--Doug.(talk • contribs) 02:07, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Importance 

message: With regard to the below mentioned section;
In the United States
In the United States, the early improvers of the Devon breed were Francis Quartly and his brothers William and Henry, and John Tanner Davy and his brother William. Colonel John Tanner Davy founded the Devon herdbook in 1850. In 1884, the Devon Cattle Breeders' Society was organized and took over the herdbook.''
John Tanner & Willam Davy were of Devon as outlined in this article: http://www.devoncattle.com/history-england.php and from my family records (Davy). This reference and others describe Francis Quartly also from the same region and not from the United States.
This fragment has been edited and moved from, "In the United States" to "Origin of the Breed".  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Treestart (talk • contribs) 11:03, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
