In several shows Ozzie's nieces appear. Lori was one of them. I forget right now the others name.

In the Xmas episode The Lost Gift, at the end of the episode they are introduced by Ozzie. Were these Don's kids? And also in The Lost Gift, it says that Barbara was played by Barbara Nelson their sister in law. Was that Don's wife? And I have seen Barabra in several other episodes. She was a frequent guest in various roles. Only her name shows up as Barbara Eiler. or something like that. I looked that up on IMDB, which as we all know is sometimes lacking, but her page lists nothing about being related to any of the Nelsons. Not that means anything, I just haven't been able to find anything on her.

So does anyone know anything about her?

Anyone know what happened to Ozzie's nieces that appeared on the show?

And speaking of Ozzie's family, anyone know anything about Ozzie's brother Al?

Don Nelson, younger brother of Ozzie, was not the husband of Barbara. Don was married to the gorgeous Connie Harper, "Miss Edwards" on the show. Sorry I'm unable to assist otherwise.

I don't remember much being said about Al in the bio I read last. I believe Ozzie was in his 20's when Don was born and Al was closer to Ozzie in age. I've never heard anything about the nieces either.
I would like to know whatever happened to Ginger, Charlene Salerno. She seems to have just disappeared completely.

I know Don married Connie, but that wasn't even til after the show had ended. He could have been married before that. I have no idea. I was stunned a few years ago when I found out Don and Connie were married once upon a time.

From the sounds of it, it seems like Don and Connie must have divorced. Anyone know how long they were actually married for?

[B]I know that Connie was married before Don and had a son. I ran across his web page one time. He had pics of him and his Mom with the Nelsons. He had played a child extra in several episodes./B]
