From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Andrew Allan Clyde (March 25, 1892 – May 18, 1967), was a Scottish-born American film and television actor whose career spanned some 45 years. In 1921 he broke into silent films as a Mack Sennett comic, debuting in On a Summer Day. He was the fifth of six children of theatrical actor, producer and manager John Clyde. Clyde's brother David and his sister Jean also became screen actors. Clyde may be best known for his work as California Carlson in the Hopalong Cassidy movie series, as well as for starring in 79 comedy shorts for Columbia Pictures from 1934-1956. He is also known for recurring roles in two television series: the farmer Cully Wilson in CBS's Lassie and as the neighbor George MacMichael on ABC's The Real McCoys. Personal life On September 23, 1932, Clyde married Elsie Maud Tarron, a former member of the Sennett Bathing Beauties, in Ontario in San Bernardino County, California. Jules White recalled that Clyde became a father in middle age, and was devastated when his son, John Allan Clyde, died of meningitis at age nine. Clyde was close friends with Ben Turpin, serving as the witness at Turpin's second marriage[17] and a pallbearer at his funeral. He became a naturalized United States citizen on September 24, 1943. Clyde continued to perform on television until his death of natural causes on May 18, 1967.[13] His remains are interred at Glendale's Forest Lawn Memorial Park. CLR
