Justin Morgan was sired by a thoroughbred named True Briton and out of a part Arab mare sired by a thoroughbred named Diamond. At that time most of what we know as thoroughbreds were very closely descended from the three foundation stallions for the breed, Godolphin Arabian, Darley Arabian and Byerley Turk. Justin Morgan is thought to probably be a "sport" or a mutation.
