Jeanie has already replied a few posts back, that when she wrote the post you are now quoting, that she was unaware there were DNA tests that could determine the breed make up of a mixed dog - thus she was assuming the information was opinions that could not be backed up by factual, scientific documentation.

There are no records other than the biewer and parti breeders records to go on because prior to AKC allowing parti colored yorkies to be registered, the off colored pups were destroyed or given away. There was no documentation in AKC pedigrees tracing parti's because they were not eligible for registration, so the parti breeders records are the only records we have to go on.
I'm sure that not all blue and tan breeders records are all lies, but if you're thinking that the parti gene didn't come from the foundation dogs 100 years ago, than some blue and tan breeders records are lying right? And if my parti lines are a lie, than many traditional colored lines may be a lie as well! (JMO)
