Granny's full name was Granville (hence Granny) Wilbur Hamner. His older brother, Garvin played for part of the 1945 season with Granny's Philadelphia Phillies but that was his only stint in the majors during an 11 year professional career.
Granny was born in Richmond, Virginia and may be related to Earl Hamner Jr. who was born in the nearby town of Schuyler about four years earlier, in 1923.
Earl Hamner is best known for creating The Waltons.
NO, NO, NO!!
These Waltons!
