Jim, I picked up some old issues of The American Field in St. Joe on Friday. In a November 1922 issue I saw the listing posted here. I know this is a bit early for your or your brother's recollection, but thought you might recognize the family name. There were lots of good bird dogs running the fields of Missouri in those days.
