The first time Harold J. Stone came to my notice was in 1972, with his role in 'Bridget Loves Bernie'. But he proved to be such a powerhouse of a character actor - a true bull of a man, - that it was impossible to miss him in any of his other roles before or since.
Two other roles of note for me were in 'The Twilight Zone', in which he played sort of an FAA inspector on the verge of a psychotic breakdown; and in 'Alfred Hitchcock Presents' - in the classic episode 'Lamb To The Slaughter' with Barbara Bel Geddes.
A few of his guest appearances will need further study, in order to see if they can be linked to other shows via family trees.
For instance:
"Tales of Wells Fargo" playing "Roy Dorcas" (as Harold J. Stone) in episode: "The Sniper" (episode # 2.38) 26 May 1958
Roy Dorcas could have been the ancestor to a modern-day pirate known as Captain Dorcas in an episode of 'The Man From U.N.C.L.E.'
"The Defenders" playing "Charles Crewe" (as Harold J. Stone) in episode: "The Broken Barrelhead" (episode # 1.32) 26 May 1962
It could be that Charles Crewe might have been the grandfather of Jack Crewe, the Hollywood action hero who played Hamlet at the New Burbage Shakespeare Festival in 'Slings & Arrows'.
"The Name of the Game" playing "Harry Mudd" (as George E. Stone) in episode: "Keep the Doctor Away" (episode # 1.21) 14 February 1969
Ooooooh! This is an exciting one, kiddies! How can I resist making the claim that he was one of the ancestors of Harcourt Fenton "Harry" Mudd, the character played by Roger C. Carmel in two episodes of the classic 'Star Trek'?
This tribute was made up with the help of the IMDb.com, but I do have to point out a redundancy in their list of Harold J. Stone's credits:
"Disneyland" playing "Chisholm" in episode: "The Slaughter Trail" (episode # 5.23) 20 March 1959
"Texas John Slaughter" playing "John Chisholm" (as Harold J. Stone) in episode: "The Slaughter Trail" (episode # 1.6) 20 March 1959
Obviously, these were the exact same shows.
