Database of ACPS-Registered Connemaras
This database contains Connemaras permanently registered with the American Connemara Pony Society through Stud Book XV (registered from 1956-1978, so born by 1976 at the latest). We now have about 26 percent of the roughly 7,000 Connemaras registered in the US. Every entry has been double-checked. We will continue to add stud books as time allows. Searching a name will produce a list of results (if the pony is in the database). Click a name in the list to see the family tree. Offspring and transfers will appear below the family tree. To test the database, enter “Texas” without the quotation marks and then select “Texas Hope” from the list.
