Honey (Helen Stewart) and Turk had a painting of Turk hanging in their living room. At the bottom of Turk's portrait was a small plate that said "Turk Greenough National Saddle Bronc Champion 1953-1956".

I'm puzzled by the comment that his last Rodeo was in 1948.

I am writing a bio on the father after my book on Liver EAting Johnston.

Greenough spent one winter with Johnston and went on to marry and have the famous rodeo riders....

I am collecting information on them.

Thank you,

I explained the circumstances of this to Tom Ringley during his re-righting of Turk's biography called When the Whistle Blows. Turk was my dad - actually uncle who used to joke that he "stold" me. If there is anything you would like to know about him you're welcome to email me.

Would be interested in reading your book as Packsaddle Ben Greenough was known by me as Grandpa Greenough. He has been written about and is in the historical records of Carbon County, MT. I have many photos of him and Grandma Greenough who has an interesting history of her own as I discovered when visiting a museum in Monroe, MI.

Second post

Also meant to say the buckle is inscribed 1933 not 1953-1936. I still have it; his first chanpionship buckle.
