Written by Pete Spates on May. 19, 2012 I have just learned of "Ed's" passing. He made a bit for me 12 years ago. One of the most beautiful pieces of gear I have. In that time I have had the privlidge of putting 7 horses up in the bridle. All of them, knowing, that they were in the best bits they would ever wear. It is with great sadness to know he is no longer with us. My most sincere sympathy to the Fields family. We have all lost someone we cared deeply about and loved. E-mail: Website: huntrancharena.com

Written by Edwin (Field/Long) Ratcliffe on Nov. 9, 2010 For Diana Field Steele. Are you of the Santa Barbara Field family? If so, you might want to exchange information I have a rather extensive Field family genealogy research: but I have very little on descendants below my great grandfather Edwin Field of Rhode Island -- to Downieville, CA and then Santa Barbara (1822 - 1902) and his wife Maria A. Leyva (1843 - 1023) I am very interested in filling in some additional Field folks of the Santa Barbara area. My great aunt was Louise Field "Bedo" who was Edwin's daughter Mary Lucia Field's. I knew "Bedo" until the time of her death in Paradise, CA at age 101. I sure hope your might have information for me as well. Best wishes Edwin & Linda Ratcliffe, Yucaipa, CA E-mail:
