Jack McKillop

Peter William Cortlandt II (Petey)

1997-99

Jack was one of the better-known Peteys, but he still played the character during a time where he was rarely seen. Jack's only other showbiz role was in The Devil's Own, as Jack Fitzsimmons (1997). {pic on left courtesy Real Kids, pic on right courtesy Amy}

Petey was the product of one of the more interesting AMC relationships. Opal and Palmer couldn't be much more different. But, they both loved their little boy. {pics courtesy Amy}

Kelsey lived at Cortlandt Manor for a while when she and Bobby were an item. {Bobby is Palmer's nephew and Petey's cousin}. So, she was a built in babysitter! {pics courtesy Amy}

Matthew McNamara

Robert Thorne Warner (Bobby)

1981-88

Matthew and his sister, Kerry, who appeared as Ryan on Ryan's Hope. They are one of the earliest sets of young actor siblings on the soaps.

Matthew was recognized on the streets of New York at a young age by fans. One time he was featured in a New York newspaper wearing adult sunglasses. The fame never seemed to affect him however.

Bobby is the natural child of Sybil Thorne and Cliff Warner. He was conceived after Palmer helped to break up his daughter Nina and Cliff. Sybil was later murdered and Nina adopted the boy when he was still a baby. His parents would marry three times. {pics courtesy Vera, from video at wost.org}

Matthew was the best known Bobby. He held the role for more than 7 years. Matthew was the second actor in his family to work on a soap. His older sister, Kerry, played baby Ryan Fenelli on Ryan's Hope from 1977-1980.

Bobby played a central role in each of Cliff and Nina's weddings. By age 5, he was participating in their third wedding. They'd have one more in 1989, but Bobby was no longer in the role.

For the first few months she was in town, many people thought Emma was Tad and Dixie's daughter, Kate. But, in reality, she had a connection to another Pine Valley resident. {pics 12.19.06}
