AboutMike Hensel Expertise I will try and answer all questions dealing with television...show names, plots, actors, roles, networks, etc...US shows primarily; not real knowledgeable on TV from other countries...I lean heavily into past, more so than current, television...and, my knowledge dealing with "reality" shows is limited, due to the fact that I really can't stand the genre (my apologies to all the "Reality" fans out there...)

Question What were the names of Any Taylor's dates besides Helen Crump? First names are O.K.
Answer Brenda, I can only come up with one that was considered Andy's "girlfriend"...
she's druggist Ellie Walker, played by Elinor Donahue ("Father Knows Best"), in the first season..
Helen joined the cast in the 5th year, and, as you may know, is the one that Andy married...
for seasons 2 thru 4, he didn't have a steady...
just going through the episode guide, I've come up with a few names, although not all of them will be "dates"...
Bertha Johnson/Clara Edwards??? (on more than one occasion)
Elizabeth Crowley
Karen Moore
Mary Simpson (more than one episode)
Peggy McMillan (definitely a "date")
Sharon DeSpain (high school sweetheart???)
Lorraine Beasley
Lavinia
Amanda
Rosemary (the last 4 names were from the same episode, "A Wife for Andy")
I'm guessing the first name (Bertha/Clara) is not a "date"...
