Founder of Krogman Quarter Horses

Louie was born on January 18, 1902, in Sibley, Iowa. He was the seventh of fifteen children. When Louie was a toddler, his Father, Frank Sr., his Mother, Agnes, and family moved from Iowa to a little place called Dixon, S.D. Then on May 10, 1917, the family moved to Mellette County, home steading ten miles north of White River, S.D. There, Louie helped on the ranch with the horses. One season his Father shipped thirteen carloads of horses back to Iowa to be sold at auction. When Louie was young, his Father always had 75 to 100 brood mares on the place. They always had 12 to 15 stallions in their stud barn, mostly work horses. Louie and his father would go around the countryside breeding outside mares for other farmers.
When Louie left home, he acquired land nine miles south of White River and that is the present location of the Krogman Quarter Horse ranch today.
Louie always ran a lot of horses on his place. One summer he sold 2500 head of horses off of his ranch. He sold 600 to a man by the name of Art Watson in one day. Then that fall he sold 728 through the sale ring in White River, which Louie also owned .
Louie started his Quarter Horse business in 1950 at the Denver Stock Show. He brought a yearling stallion that stood Grand Champion at halter. The colt's name was Tom B Glover by Little Tom B by King. Louie kept a lot of mares out of Tom B Glover and built his Registered Quarter Horse herd from that foundation.
Louie passed away on December 6, 1991. Louie's wife, Eunice and eight children (Ronnie, Dorothy, Barbetta, Stanley, Casey, Steve, Lorena, Neil) are all involved in Krogman Quarter Horses. The Louie Krogman Family continues to raise foundation Quarter Horses.
