Disclaimer: The article contains mentions of murder. Reader discretion is advised. Charles Manson was one of the most notorious serial killers in US history. His crimes came to light in December 1969 when the authorities charged him and his followers for the brutal killings of actress Sharon Tate and her friends. The court found Manson and his followers guilty and given the death penalty. However, in 1972, the state of California abolished the death penalty, and all their sentences were changed to life imprisonment. His crimes and reputation have since made people curious about his personal life and if he had any kids.

Actor Buddy Ebsen, who died at age 95 in 2003, found fame by starring in two of the most popular classic television shows in history: The Beverly Hillbillies (CBS, 1962 to 1971) and Barnaby Jones (CBS, 1973 to 1980). On the Hillbillies, he played former Tennessee country mountain-folk-turned-wealthy Beverly Hills resident Jed Clampett. On Barnaby Jones, he was one of TV's most senior, slyest, health-conscious detectives. Ebsen, however, almost became even more famous for a certain big-screen classic film in which he ultimately did not appear.

Randolph’s messy past earned him the nickname the “Black Widower,” and it came to a head with the demise of his sixth (and, to date, final)...
