The
The
first of the hillbilly sitcoms was called “The Beverly Hillbillies” and it was
unique in the fact that this story was inspired by an incident that occurred
when the program’s creator, Paul Henning, visited a log cabin in the hills of
Kentucky. This particular cabin was the
birthplace of American President Abraham Lincoln. He began to wonder what it must have been

something similar happened to a hillbilly family today and this classic
television program was born. Paul was a
Christian and also came to realize that each of us that was born again would
one day undergo the same process when we first see the wonders of heaven!!!
This was the first of many hillbilly sitcoms and it
premiered in 1964. This program starred
Buddy Ebsen, Irene Ryan, Donna Douglas, & Max
Baer, Jr., whom we all know lovingly as Jed, Grannie, Elly Mae, & Jethro of
the beloved Clampett Clan.
Jed Clampett and kin, a poor Ozark Hillbilly family, were
barely surviving until one lucky day. Jed while hunting for food in his swamp
missed his target and struck the ground with his shot. Up through the ground
came a bubblin' crude, Oil that is, Black Gold, Texas
Tea. After selling his swamp to the OK
Oil Company for $25 Million, Cousin Pearl convinces Jed he should move his
family to
