Peter McCue can be found in the lineage of 75 percent of all American quarter horses today, said Davis. “He had a good, but short career as a race horse and then went on to be a stud horse. While in Illinois, he sired three of his most famous sons: Harmon Baker, Hickory Bill and John Wilkins,” she said. Peter McCue became the first horse ever to be honored with a marker by the American Quarter Horse Association. The marker was erected at the Menard County Fairgrounds in 1995.
