I know a couple of them, I'd put them in the old flames category. It rained last night. Yeah I know, I was right there in it. You sure do talk a lot about the weather

OK, the Rileys seem to know pretty much where these name came from. I will wait a little longer for the rest of you to come around, but I will be at the beach for a week starting in the AM, so I may not have internet access very much.

Ok, so which one is the one that it was said of, "One of the great natural romances of all time?"

Guessing either Sharron or Lilian, just a guess

Duke, your first guess is correct! Andrew Jackson Taylor and Sharron Despain are said to be (according to Barney) "one of the greatest natural romances of all time." But you will recall that she wanted to be a big fish in a big pond (Chicago) whereas Andy liked being a big fish in a little pond. That's why they never, well you know. Now, one more: Who did Barney say said, "The tears on my pillow bespeak the pain that is in my heart?" Only one guess please. Old paratrooper, it is your turn.

Ramona, wonder if she was related to Mrs. (definitely Back Bay Boston) Wiley ?

I dunno. But Ernest T. met a girl at Mrs. Wiley's named something like Ramona. Not the same girl obiviously. Going to the beach. See y'all in a week.

Dan, that just goes to show you can't learn everything from books.
