I have located the profiles for the stars of ''The Wizard of Oz'' which are on the following open-space profile (http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:The_Wizard_of_Oz_Film).

I had previously worked on connecting Bert Lahr (The cowardly lion) without success. Tonight, though, I found a connection for Margaret Hamilton (The Wicked Witch of the West).

Margaret's Great Grandfather's (Justus Hamilton) sister Juliana was married to Edmund Rathbun/Rathbone Jr.. Edmund's grandfather Jonathan is 18 degrees from AJ!

I think she should be 25 steps, but will have to wait for the reload.

Saw the 3D version of the Wizard of OZ fairly recently. Impressive how they took a movie that was not recorded initially as 3D and somehow made it 3D.

Oh I just found this original space profile created by Ron, so I'll merge the new one I just created into it...I have many of the talents behind the camera listed, so glad to contribute as a profile improvement!

I met Cammie King, the lady who played Bonnie Blue at a Civil War Ball once in Plant City, Florida. I believe she has since passed away. Has anyone added her to this project?
