Any Shroomery historians out there? How did current genetics come to be?

I keep seeing people talk about how this was crossed with that to make PE, Melmak, etc and it's fascinating. Being new around here I would love to learn more about the history of how the most popular strains/varieties came to be. Like, if a cube is a cube, how did we end up with such diversity? Did they all come from a single parent cube back in the day? Are there any good threads on here that you know of that talks about this stuff?
Also I just got RW spores in the mail ( Smartattack) and I'm super excited to work with a piece of Shroomery's history myself

Bump for interest!
Also, I have heard that GT's are an OG strain, circa 1980's, or at least that's when they were popular. Don't take my word for it though!

Im sure getting an accurate picture of this would be difficult. Due to the whole legality issue not many legit records being kept lol. But yeah It obviously all started with pretty hum drum natural findings being selected by growers. No different than common carrots having started as Queen Annes lace, which has a very disappointing root if you are expecting a carrot.

Lol, oh man. I love drininking and shroomering. Funny things pop up in the strangest of places.
There are threads available however. PE is a little too infamous to pin down an answer, but I like this one by Hamilton:
https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.vice.com/amp/en/article/3bpqbw/12-inch-shroom-603-v16n2
And then there's the RW thread:

Yeah good point, I guess stumbling across random posts will have to do
