Did Miss Beadle really exist?

No one has forgotten Miss Beadle's face, especially fans of Little House on the Prairie. Star of the series until season 4, did the Walnut Grove school teacher really exist or was she created solely for fiction? Seriously carried out his investigation.

Present from the first season of Little House on the PrairieMiss Beadle, the Walnut Grove teacher, quickly took a leading role in the intrigues. Played on screen by Charlotte Stewart, she is recognizable for her sweet face hiding a character that is just as sweet. Very loving and loved by her students, she is close to the Ingalls girls who appreciate her enormously.

She, who was initially single, will even be at the heart of a love story since she will meet the pig breeder Adam Simms (Joshua Bryant), with whom she will marry and have a child. But then, as is the case with many members of the Ingalls family who actually existed, is Eva Beadle also based on a real-life woman, or was she created from scratch?

We know it well, Little House on the Prairie is a series inspired by reality. It was in fact the writings of the real Laura Ingalls Wilder which served as the basis for imagining what would later become one of the most essential series on the big screen, thus starting from real people by giving them fictionalized stories, such as for Mary Ingalls and her loss of sight, for example. This is also the case with Miss Beadle!

Yes! Those who adored the flagship teacher of Little House on the Prairie may not have known it, but will surely love this information: Miss Beadle is not a purely invented character, but appears in the writings of the real Laura Ingalls. In the volume On the Banks of Plum Creek (By the stream), published in 1937, she actually mentions “a professor” or “a schoolteacher” without giving her name, but refers to the fact that she lives in a store run by a certain Mr Beadle!

Unfortunately for viewers, this unforgettable character left the series at the end of season 4, following a drop in audience, leaving her interpreter Charlotte Stewart in turmoil, who then fell into alcohol and the drug. In 2016, the one we also saw in The Young and the Restless et Twin Peaks has also published an autobiography called Little House on the Hollywood Hillsin which she reveals numerous anecdotes about Little House on the Prairie and his other experiences behind the screen.
