North Carolina
Breeders
Milton Blake found the remains of his last doe in 2010. The Blake bloodline is no longer avaialble in the United States, but 30 of Blake's goats were transported to Canada by Bernard Gil, and their genetics constitute part of the Gil line. The other goats that Bernard Gil transported into Canada are represented the old New Hampshire line, but these do not contain Blake genetics.
