  • Introduction

    Nellie was born to William Presley "Willie" Burt (1867-1955) and Bertha Herrick Burt (1878-1943) and married William H. McMullen (1896-1934) in 1924. They had a child Jean Paula McMullen Warner (1926-2007) and were married until William's death. (Nellie had a subsequent marriage to Paul E. Martin. There is no record of children from this marriage.) A diminutive character actress who began her career on stage in 1921, she was known to play strange, eccentric old ladies on television in the 1950's and 60's. Her smiling, narrow-eyed countenance was usually inscrutable, portraying either evil or benevolence. She is probably best remembered in science fiction roles including "The Outer Limits" (1963), "The Invaders" (1967) or "Bewitched" (1964). Her IMDb biography states that she was an 8th generation theatrical performer, tracing her roots to the Clifford Family in England. In the 1900 census, Nellie was 6 months old, living with her parents William (age 34 born MN) and Bertha (age 23 born CO) in Aberdeen Washington. William was a house painter. In the 1940 census, Nellie was age 40, married, living in New York and working as an actress, "legitimate theater". The highest grade that she had completed was 7th grade. She was living with husband Paul E Martin, age 42, and daughter Jean P McMullen, age 14. Paul was listed as a stage director, also in the "legitimate theater".
