Louis Lane RIIP: Doppelganger Namer

The Deaths in 2016 site lists under February 15:

  • Louis Lane (December 25, 1923 – February 15, 2016)
 Louis Lane is close enough to "Lois Lane" to be an addition to the "Name Doppelganger" pattern-cluster. and so worth investigating.  Note the following info gathered in regards to Lois Lane :


  • Joanne Siegel (December 1, 1917 – February 12, 2011)
  • Lois was also influenced by the real life journalist Nellie Bly
  • Elizabeth Cochrane Seaman[1] (May 5, 1864[2] – January 27, 1922) Nellie Bly,
  • Siegel based Lois' personality on Torchy Blane—a gutsy, beautiful, and headline-hunting reporter, portrayed by Glenda Farrell in a series of 1930s films. Siegel took the character's name from actress Lola Lane, who played Torchy Blane on one occasion.  In the final film of the series, Torchy Blane... Playing with DynamiteJane Wyman star as Torchy
  • Glenda Farrell (June 30, 1904 – May 1, 1971)
  • Lola Lane (May 21, 1906 – June 22, 1981)
  • Jane Wyman ( Sarah Jane Mayfield; January 5, 1917 – September 10, 2007) 
Note Wyman's birthday.  If you read my posts over the last few days you'll come across a "January 5" pattern-cluster, and it's also the birthday of my dog, Bailey and so an addition to the recent "Dog Theme" pattern-cluster.   It's interesting to note the dates pertaining to Farrell and Lane, where both have May and June in common, Farrell was born on the last day of June and died on the first day of May; Lane's date of birth and death together with my mothers date of death on July 23rd,  generates a "May 21, June 22, July 23/Date Sequence pattern-cluster.

This next leg of the investigation concern actress Phyllis Coates and Margot Kidder who played the part of Lois Lane:


Release dates
  • November 23, 1951
  • Phyllis Coates (born Gypsie Ann Evarts Stell[2] on January 15, 1927)
  • George Reeves (January 5, 1914 – June 16, 1959)
Note the surname Reeves, name doppelganger ... Christopher Reeve (September 25, 1952 – October 10, 2004) also played Superman.  And of course his birthday is another addition to the  "January 5" pattern-cluster, and the "Dog Theme" pattern-cluster.  Coates date of birth is an addition to the "Targeting Family Birthdays" pattern-cluster given that January 15 is the birthday of my son and my life-partner who are 22 years apart.  The films Release date is another addition to the "Targeting Family Birthdays" pattern-cluster given that November 23rd is my mothers birthday.

As for the second actress:
  • Margaret Ruth "Margot" Kidder (born October 17, 1948)
Now note the following information regarding one of Lois Lane's creators:
  • Jerome "Jerry" Siegel (October 17, 1914 – January 28, 1996)
We now have an "October 17 (x2)" pattern-cluster.
