Maar-Ree was born, a coal black filly
by FaSabb out of the beautiful Maarou, on April 12, 1957 and remained with
her breeder, Nellie Jackson for four years. When Dr. Leon and Roberta Weaver
visited the Jackson farm in 1960, looking for foundation stock. They had
been searching for their foundation stock for over two years when they were
given a complete tour of the Jackson farm. Bobbe Weaver walked through the
trees of a beautiful orchard, and there found the young Maar-Ree. She knew
from the moment she saw the black filly, that this was the mare who would
be the cornerstone of their Straight Egyptian breeding program. In her words,
"Maar-Ree was an elegant mare that sent shivers up my spine the first
time I saw her. That was a sensation she invoked in me all the years she
shared my life." It took well over a year of negotiations to convince
the Jackson's that were worthy of their splendid young mare but they did
acquire Maar-Ree and formed a life-long friendship with the Jacksons. |

Maar Ree remained with the Weavers for eleven years, when ill health
forced the Weavers to disperse their horses. For the eleven years Maar-Ree
lived with them, she was Bobbe Weaver's personal saddle horse. They won
many ribbons together in English, Jumping and Western Pleasure and was
never out of the ribbons. She also produced six foals for the Weavers.
The first of Maar-Ree's fourteen foals for the was a bay filly by Disaan,
named Maar Jumana. She was born in 1962, and produced two colts and six
fillies including RDM Maar Hala and MFA Monien. Maar-Ree's second foal,
Maar Raj was a multi-champion by Sur-Ghari.

Her next colt, Maar Jon was by Disaan. The next
was a dark bay colt by *Ibn Moniet El Nefous named Maar Khaliq who eventually
became the senior herd sire for Mubazir Arabians in Valley Center, California
who bred many incredibly beautiful and athletic Straight Egyptian horses.
A second colt by *Ibn Moniet El Nefous, Maar Jalal, followed by the beautiful
grey mare, Maar Juhara, also by *Ibn Moniet El Nefous and the last foal
bred by the Weavers. |

Bob and Jeanne Middleton, of Renton, Washington, purchased Maar-Ree's
oldest daughter, Maar Jumana. Jumana was open when she arrived at the
Middleton's farm and they bred her El Hilal, producing RDM Maar Hala.
When Mr. Weaver's worsening heart condition necessited a move and chang
of lifestyle for the Weavers, the Middletons were able to acquire Maar-Ree
and her filly Maar Juhara , after a visit from Bobbe that convinced her
that they would provide a good home for her beloved friend.

RDM Maar Halima in 1974, then to TheEgyptianPrince to produce RDM Dhakkhar
in 1975, them again for her fourth Champion colt, Sarmaan in 1976, who her
put her on the Aristocrat Mare list. The next year, again bred to TheEgyptianPrince,
Maar-Ree produced the beautiful MFA Maariia Isis in 1977 at the age of twenty.
In 1980 Maar-Ree gave birth to a colt by TheEgyptianPrince named MFA Bahar.
Her last foal, MFA Bint Maarree by El Hilal was born in 1981 |
