I've never even heard of House Peters, which is no surprise because I don't know nearly as many Silents Stars as you guys do.
That's the first I've ever heard of House Peters, as well.

I had to go look him up and his son was an actor as well and was the original Mr. Clean in the commercials.
We didn't need dialogue. We had faces!

Wow!!! Cool!!! That's so neat. Now I'm going to have to go home and research to see if any of these people in my silent players photo album had famous descendants! :)

Boy, I don't know. I'll keep thinking. The bottom two don't look familiar at all, but that top one... there's something very characteristic there, but I can't place it.

Judging by the eyes in the first pic, is it Mary Pickford?
I wish my life was a non-stop Hollywood movie show
a fantasy world of celluloid villains and heroes
Because celluloid heroes never feel any pain
and celluloid heroes never really die...
