This is quite true.  Not only has Line, the great
granddam, produced a red dun offspring(Anvil's Edel),
but I believe there are one or two red dun grands and
great-grands out there.

The person to answer this one would be his owners,
Orville and Anita Unrau.  I know they have had several
red dun Fjords, but I don't know whether they have
Adel's sire or not.  His name was Leidjo.  I believe
that most of their red duns come from a stallion named
Rudaren, whom they imported from Norway in the 1980's.
 Anita, are you still on the list?
