How about Milking Shorthorn, Devon, Dutch Belted and ?? maybe Tarentaise?

Don't know much about dairy cattle but can add Simenthal, which is considered to be a double purpose breed.

Pretty tough question but I will GUESS milking short horn, belted Galloway,and given the time period, simmental??? Know I've heard about them being considered a dairy breed years ago.
