All I could figure out was that is was likely grown off of the 946 Boonen 12*, which was grown off of the 855 Boonen 11* which was grown off of the 1106 Horde 10*.

That's not quite right, Brad. The 1285 Boonen was grown off the 854 Boonen 11* witch was a 818 De Swert* X 1106 Horde*.
Herman fertilized it with the 1159 Kline where I grew the 1239 Berrens 14*. greetings, Luc Berrens

Thanks Luc. It is hard to get info from Belgium...
So the 1285 Boonen* is (854 Boonen* x 1159 Kline*)
The 1239 Berrens* is (1159 Kline* x ?)

PS. The 854 Boonen* en 855 Boonen* (as entered in the EGVGA data bank) are the same.
