Dr. Carl  Miller       Bert's father 1953

Elsie ____ Miller Bert's mother 1953

Elsie ___   Miller Franklin     Ethel Remey    1956-57  Bertha's mother

Albert Franklin   ????    1957     Elsie Miller's second husband,; Bert's step-father  died

I reached out to a certain former Soap Opera Digest Writer that was well known for histories (the one that sent me his cast lists while he was moving.) Here's what he had..

 I recently discovered that Elsie and Dr. Carl Miller appeared on screen in 1953. Do you think Ethel Remey was in the role then, as well as in 1956 and 1957? Have you ever seen that anyone portrayed Carl -- Maybe Carl Low? Hmmm...
I don't know about Carl Miller but there was another actress who played Elsie at one time. Possibly Leona Powers.
 
@jam6242  Could you look into Leona Powers and see if there's anything there?

No luck with Leona Powers, other than a 1959 letter from a viewer asking whether she played Mrs. Allen on GL.  The newspaper columnist didn't know the answer.

Thanks for trying.

 

 

Mrs. Allen was Bob Lang's mother... Oh Well, back to the drawing board...

Al Gibbs    Never Seen  1959 Nora's husband who deserted her. Dies in a car crash in Las Vegas.

 

Amy Sinclair    runaway drug
addict that gave
   birth to a daughter, Nora that the Grants 
     were going to adopt, involved with Joe
                    Turino.
       Joanne Linville    1959-60

This is the Nora character. 
I see that 'Soap World'  lists this character as Amy so somewhere along the line this misinformation became fact.
