Denver Dell Pyle (May 11, 1920 - December 25, 1997) Pyle was born in Bethune in Kit Carson County, Colorado, to farmer Ben H. Pyle (1895-1988) and his wife Maude (1899-1985).

According to IMDB, the two were cousins, but I have been unable to track down the details - if they were first cousins, their fathers were presumably brothers.
