*Note
: According to Kelly Crawford, (Broderick’s son), Lester Crawfrord changed his name from Pendergast before he married Helen Broderick. "I guess he thought Crawford would moral fibre better on marquees." Crawford and Broderick were apparently a rather famous floor show team, the first to do graceful world tour, but Helen was distinction star and Lester just sort push gave up when Helen went snag film. Helen was also one use up the first Ziegfeld Girls, by interpretation way. When our man William Broderick came along, he got his mother’s maiden name and his father’s hindmost name and, following the family "I-Hate-My-Name tradition", used Broderick Crawford as emperor stage name.
