I thought this might be interesting for Bevery Hillbillies fans. Below is a photo of the last home(s) occupied by Bea Benaderet (Twombley) who played Pearl Bodine and also played Kate Bradely on Petticoat Junction. The home is located at 12999 Blairwood Dr, Studio City, CA 91604.
Born April 4, 1906 - Died October 13, 1968 (Lung Cancer)

That's a nice estate. I wasn't aware that Bea Benaderet died so young. That's a shame.

Bea Benaderet was Lucille Ball's first choice to play Ethel Mertz, but she was already doing "George Burns & Gracie Allen Show". Bea's son, actor Jack Bannon, was on "Lou Grant" and he married John Travolta's sister, Ellen Travolta.

Bea sure had quite an impact on Hollywood for such a young life.

That's nice. I live in a little double wide trailor that almost got torn up last storm we had. I bet her house never tipped over!
