Barred Plymouth Rocks were first exhibited at Worcester, Massachusetts in 1869. These were composites of several blood lines. The first and most prominent cross was that of a Dominique male with Black Cochin or Black Java females which was originally made at Putnam, Connecticut. The Dominique male used was not the American or Rose Comb Dominique male which became a Standard breed in 1874, but a single combed, hawk-colored fowl commonly found in that locality.
