 I am a member of the American Livestock Breeds Conservancy 
(albc~usa.org) for about 5 years now. There is also the New England 
Heritage Breeds Conservancy(nehbc.org). While both of these groups 
emphasis 17th-19th cen. American breeds, they have been most helpful in 
my research regarding older breeds.

P.S. BTW, thanks, Ras, for your imput, there are LOTS of people out 
there who really have very limited ideas regarding the study of animal 
husbandry and what it takes to put food into their kithchens let alone 
onto their tables!!
