I don't remember Horace Brimley. What Season was he on ? He was on several Waltons --- if you go to imdb and search Wilford Brimley, you'll find them all..... FYI, just trying to help you become more self-sufficient at all this ..... otherwise, you have to wait for one of us to look it up and provide the answers..... You'll want to familiarize yourself with everything available at the-waltons.com and you'll soon find yourself bookmarking other good sites mentioned on the forum.....

I didn't "discover" Wilford Brimley until I saw him in my all-time favorite "modern" movie -- 1983's Tender Mercies -- and only realized he'd been in The Waltons a couple of years ago!!
He's had an interesting background..... was a farmer and rodeo rider, then blacksmith. Took his first bit part when he was 35 (1969), so he was very new to the bus. when he got his Waltons role. His appearing in ten episodes says something about his talent.....
For those who don't know "Tender Mercies" -- it also has an interesting story. Was never put out in full distribution (stupid!), but won Oscars for best actor (Robert Duvall) and best writing; was also nominated for best director, best music, and best picture..... Nominated for several other awards and won many.....
Tender Mercies was the reason I bought my first VCR !! I bet I've watched it over 50 times and will many more times. Absolutely incredible writing and acting...... love the story, too. Great back stories about the making of the movie and about the various actors, including child Allan Hubbard.....
End of sales pitch for today. (maybe)

I was looking for the age of the person who played the part of Curtis Packard, who supposedly suvived Pearl Harbor only to turn into an impotent scuttlebum in The Tempest. Was the person who played his part older than Judy Norton-Taylor{Mary Ellen Walton-Willard-Jones)?

He was in about 25 episodes -- I guess not enough to be listed above ??

Jeri, Scott Hylands played Curt Willard/Packard in The Whirlwind and The Tempest . If you remember he changed his name to Packard.
According to IMDb he was born in 1943 in Vancouver British Columbia.

Wasn't one of the Roman Brady guys in one of the Walton's episodes the old one with the curly hair?

Jerijet..we ALL want to forget the second Curt.
WORSE storyline in history..yes, I am saying even if Earl reads this post. It killed the credibility of the show.
