early AMC characters
1. Who here remembers when Paul Martin was presumed dead? He was supposed to have been killed in Korea, but he actually was a prisoner of war. Ken Rabet originated that role.

2. Who here actually remembers Mike Bursell as Bobby Martin? I do not remember him because All My Children was not carried here until October : we had no ABC affilitate in my town.

I do remember Mike Bursell vaguely from Where the Heart Is and very well from a commercial for Stridex Medicated Pads.

3. Can anyone tell me about the character of Lois Sloane? Hilda Haynes played this original character, but I know nothing about the character.

Yes, I remember that. But I think William Mooney had taken over the role when Paul first married Anne, hadn't he?

I must have seen him when the show first premiered, but he was only on a couple of episodes. We did see him again, sort of, a few years ago when Opal got locked in the Martin's attic and saw a skeleton beside a pair of skiis! LOL!

Sorry, but I can't help you there.

Do you remember the days when Phoebe Tyler was NOT wearing a wig and she had red hair?

I loved the days of ALL MY CHILDREN when the Tylers were the only rich family in town. We could identify with the Martins. How many times did I wish I could visit Grandma Kate and have some of her cookies and lemonade? THAT's what's missing from ALL MY CHIDREN these days. Down-to-earth characters!

Paul
I think that you are right about the Paul role being played by William Mooney by the time that Anne and Paul married.

However, I do know that Ken Rabet was playing Paul when Joe and Ruth married. There is a picture of him in Robert LaGuardia's Soap World book at the wedding.
