“ Is there a very famous family known as Pitchford?” >>>

You’re gonna kill me for this, but are you possibly thinking of the enormously famous 1930’s star, Mary Pickford, who married the reknown publisher, HERSH, and who built her an equally famous Hollywood Hills castle/mansion and scandalously known as “Pickford”?

Oopsie, Meant say “scandalously over-sized”, referring to the castle-mansion, known as Pickford.

You could well be right. I don’t keep names straight very well.

Are you talking about William Randolph Hearst? And Hearst Castle? It wasn't in Hollywood. It was north up the California coast and hard to get to at the time. Its a fascinating tour to take.

San Simeon, CA.

Hearst = OD = Original Derp?

Perhaps you’re thinking of someone else, Pickford was married 3 times and none were named herse, or Hearst. Her most famous husband was Douglas Fairbanks.
