Watson family

The Watson Family are an American family of nine sibling actors who are known as "the first family of Hollywood." They were initially active as child actors in silent motion picture films.

As of 2024, Garry Watson (born 1928), the 8th Watson sibling, has been the only living sibling from the family.[1] and since the death of Mildred Kornman and Donnie "Beezer" Smith, he is also the last living actor of the silent film era.[2]
