The Four Kings


A team of Durham oxen trained to move wagons, farm or haul logs in the woods. Durham oxen were introduced as a breed in England in 1747 and were becoming popular in the Americas about the time of the Revolution. These four are named after Gerry’s least favorite English Kings: George, William, Charles and James. The four oxen are good friends and bicker very little amongst themselves. None of them are related.
