Regular Shows:
Lucky U Ranch
From November, 1951 to February, 1953, the Sons of the Pioneers had their own radio show, and for a shorter period of time they had their own television show as well; both ran five days a week.
Little is known about the lost television episodes, but the radio shows are still available, and the TV show apparently ran along the same lines as the radio program. Betty Taylor, and Frankie Messina joined the Pioneers. The Pioneers at this time consisted of Lloyd Perryman, Tommy Doss, Ken Curtis, Hugh Farr, Karl Farr, and Shug Fisher.
In the radio show, although her role is that of a school teacher who is in love with Tommy Doss, Betty Taylor frequently joins up with Lloyd for some not-so-Western duets, like "Wedding Bells," "Apple Blossom Time," and "Moonlight Bay,"
The Lucky U Ranch maintained a unique balance of fact and fiction, and listener participation was encouraged. Every day on the radio show, an acre of land was given away to a "good deed doer" someone had written in about, and every show, near the end, Hugh reads an inspirational thought aloud.
The Roy Rogers and Dale Evans Show (September 1962 - December 1962, 13 episodes)
The Roy Rogers and Dale Evans Show was a short-lived Western variety series. Cliff Arquette, Cathie Taylor, Pat Brady, The Sons of the Pioneers and "The Roy Rogers Wranglers" group of young singers, were also feautured as regulars/semi-regulars on the show. ABC chose not to renew the contract when the option came up; they felt Roy and Dale's strong patriotic and religious themes would prove to be too unpopular for them to handle.
The Pioneers who appeared on this show are Lloyd Perryman (tenor), Tommy Doss (baritone), Dale Warren (lead), Pat Brady (bass fiddle), Roy Lanham (guitar), Wade Ray (fiddle)
To my knowledge, only one episode of The Roy Rogers and Dale Evans Show is available on DVD; the episode "Western Hit Parade."
However, two episodes can be viewed for free on Internet Archives:
"Western Hit Parade"
"This Is Our Country"
* I watched Riders of the Rockies and couldn't see Lloyd anywhere, although it is likely he is in a crowd somewhere. There are a couple scenes with musicians, the first being the opening scene where Tex is riding with a posse-sized group of singers behind him. The second is a scene in a cantina where musicians with sombreros provide backup for another of Tex's numbers; as far as I could tell, Lloyd is not in this scene. IMDb lists this among his roles.
** The Saga of Andy Burnett, The Swamp Fox, Sancho, The Homing Steer, and Johnny Shiloh all played on Walt Disney's Wonderful World of Color as mini-series.
The Saga of Andy Burnett had six episodes.
The Swamp Fox had eight episodes.
Sancho, The Homing Steer had two episodes.
Johnny Shiloh had two episodes.
I'm not sure exactly how the Pioneers appear in these, or in what episodes they appear, but it is likely that they at least provide off-screen music.

*****************
I have just seen Ms. Rose in the episode of Hawkeye and the Last of the Mohicans, in which she plays the villainess quite well. Her film career, as you can see, was very short lived, and little information is available on her. She was character actor Richard X. Slattery's third wife (he would marry once more after they divorced), and her son Kevin is currently a producer.
Both 'Hawkeye' and Encounter were Canadian-produced shows.

Laramie (September, 1959 - May, 1963, 124 episodes)
On Laramie, Stuart Randall played Sheriff Mort Cory for thirty-three episodes, providing level-headed balance for John Smith's "Slim Sherman" and Robert Fuller's "Jess Harper," and helping them out of predicaments, occasionally having to lock them up in jail. Of course, there are several times when Slim and Jess are the ones helping out Mort.
At different points in the series, Mort has a wife ("Sarah") and a nephew ("Johnny"), but neither last long; his father also makes a brief appearance in one episode, "Killer Legend."
In season one, episode "Hour After Dawn," Mort Cory is played by Robert Osterloh, and "Sarah" appears in this episode.

Not much is known about Stuart Randall aside from the roles he played, but the May/June 2013 issue of Western Clippings has a piece written about him under the Characters and Heavies column. According to this, he was in the service during WWII, and was married at the time of enlistment.
In 1969, Randall was the grand marshal of the Hesperia Days Parade in Hesperia, CA (The San Bernardino County Sun, May 20, 1969).
The May 27, 1952 issue of The Southeast Missourian newspaper contains an interesting bit of information:
Stuart Randall, a Clark Gable-ish newcomer who played the role of the general in "Fixed Bayonets" will be Gloria Swanson's leading man in Albert Zugsmith's production of "Crosstown."
Crosstown never was made. According to Gloria Swanson: The Ultimate Star, by Stephen Michael Shearer, the picture fell through because of Swanson's demands for more money.
*Randall's birth name and the names of his parents are also credit of Boyd Magers and the May/June 2013 issue of Western Clippings (#113).
