This is the first part of a series featuring our Mayberry friend, Maggie Peterson. Maggie played Charlene Darling but she did so much more. In this episode we hear about her life before Mayberry.
She grew up in Greeley, CO and she and her brother had a band called “The JaDa Quartet.” They played at several places around Colorado and eventually made it to New York where they were booked on several television series as musical guests. Andy’s manager, Richard Link, helped the group get the bookings and life was great. Listen, or watch, to hear the whole story.
She needs our help and what an opportunity we have to show her an example of how much she has meant to us.
Bonus: This week’s installment of This Week in Mayberry History by Randy Turner featuring Bertha Edwards…err…Clara Johnson…err..Clara Edwards.

The response to our last series of Neal Brower interviewing Elinor Donahue was so well received that I wanted to share more with you from Neal. This time we join him at Mayberry Days 2004 and his interview with the Darling boy (the Original Dillards) and Charlene (Maggie Peterson). This is going to be a four part series with Professor Brower and The Darlings.
This episode we get to know the men who make up the Darling family just a bit better by finding out their history as The Dillards before they arrived in Mayberry, NC. Doug, Rodney, Dean & Mitch tell stories about when they began to play music, how they started playing together and so much more.
Funny stories, smiles, laughter…..that’s what you have to look forward to and that’s just in part 1.
So, jump in where you can and hang on!
