Holstein Dairy Cows - A picture my father took in Wisconsin years ago.

The Holstein Dairy Cow is famous for its milk output.  I did find an old article that showed John W. Gale put a Holstein Bull up for sale.

I'm almost done with my follow up book on the Gales of Volo.  It will reveal what happened to the Gale family after the American Civil War.
