Joan Gordon and Janet Bennet if they are still alive. The problem is many breeders did not keep records because they were originally a poor man's dog and many of them were probably illiterate. And also as I stated before, oddities such as a white yorkie would have been culled and kept as a dirty little secret.
It is very possible that some where way back when some dog jumped the fence and since the off spring looked like a yorkie no one even knew, since it is possible for one litter to hasve more than one sire, and the gene was hidden until two of these carriers eventually ended up mating.
However it came about, it is there and cannot be denied.
