Fictional overview

Steve, played by Mike Minor, enters the series in episode two of season four. Steve was born in Seattle, Washington, and became a pilot while in the United States Air Force. He crashes his airplane in Hooterville when he is distracted by the sight of the Bradley sisters swimming in the Hooterville Cannonball's water tower. [1] Originally thought to be a "Rooshin" spy by Uncle Joe, Steve later becomes a welcome addition to the Shady Rest Hotel clan. Steve and Uncle Joe establish a crop dusting business called Carson-Elliott Enterprises. He originally shows interest in Kate Bradley's oldest blonde-haired daughter, Billie Jo; however, he eventually marries redhead Betty Jo Bradley, Kate's youngest daughter, during season five. Steve and Betty Jo move out of the Shady Rest and into a cottage near the railroad tracks. In season six, their daughter Kathy Jo ( Elna Hubbell) is born. During the final season of Petticoat Junction, Steve and Betty Jo and Kathy Jo move back to the Shady Rest Hotel.
