As far as I know, they used their real names ( Edna Rhea Patterson Huffine & Austine (Shorty) Huffine) as they were part of the "set up" crew? and not actual carnival performers. Thanks, John & Laura Patterson. >>From : suebod <suebod@tampabay.rr.com> To : FLHILLSB-L@rootsweb.com Subject : Re: [FLHILLSB] Re: Carnival City Date : Wed, 30 Oct 2002 23:16:03 -0500 No, sorry. Were these their real names? Might recognize the carnival names though. Went to http://www.thpl.org/ but can't get Al's last name correct. It was Al Tomeni, Tomelli, something like that. (That was his real name; stage name The Giant; owned Giant's Fish Camp, Gibsonton, FL). His wife was the lady with no legs who got around on a little wagon type scooter, using her hands, wore leather gloves to help. Very nice lady. Saw her all the time in Sears at Hillsboro & 22d Street. Thought an article would help jog something. Anyone else know?
