From Volume III: Biographies of Q. David Bowers’ Thanhouser Films: An Encyclopedia and History, reproduced with permission and unchanged. 54 words.

Ethyle Benham, wife of Harry Benham, sometimes appeared in publicity using this name; for example, in the 1914 Thanhouser release of A Dog’s Love. However, in most publicity her name was given as Ethyle Cooke or, occasionally, as Ethyle Cooke Benham. Refer to the biographical listing under Ethyle Cooke for her biography and filmography.
