Summary of this account on Kuhaylan al-Mimrah (in North Eastern Syria) by Hammad al-Jadu’ al-Jaz’ah (Abu Tamer, who is around 80 years old in 2022) of the Jawwalah tribe of the Tai:
All the current horses of the Kuhaylan al-Mimrah strain present in Syria today belong to a single marbat: that of Mazhur family of the Bhayman clan of the Shammar tribe. Abu Tamer’s maternal great-grandfather Ibn ‘Idan bought a mare from the Mazhur. Then Abu Tamer talked about how the line spread among various Tai and Sharabiyyin clans, how some branches of the strain are still not registered in studbooks, and how Sulayyim al-Mazhur, a descendant of the original owners recently acquired a Kuhaylat al-Mimrah mare from the Jaz’ah to bring back this strain into his family.
They all trace to the horses of the Muwayni’ family, of which the man nicknamed al-Mimrah was a member. I don’t know if the horses of al-Mazhur were directly from the Muwayni’, whether they came to them through the Fad’aan, or through another connection. But the Muwayni’ are the wellspring of the K. Mimrah strain, then the strain spread among the tribes.
The al-Mazhur got them from ‘Anazah but they did not specify which ‘Anazah. I can check.
It’s a very “short” strain, i.e. the number of hands through which it passed is limited.

Shukran!
So the Mimrah of the Mazhur family are from a different marbat from Freiha Al-Hamra, who came from the Fad’aan, then?
