<P> Deputy Bernard Milton "Barney" Fife is Deputy Sheriff of Mayberry . Thin, wiry and high - strung, Barney fancies himself an expert lawman even though--in reality--he is actually a bumbling goof . In episodes 001 and 002, Andy refers to him as "Cousin Barney". In episode 025, his middle name is said to be "Oliver"; in episode 082, his middle name according to his high school yearbook is "Milton", in episode 157 (season 5) his middle initial is repeated as "P". He considers his position to be essential to keeping Mayberry safe . Even though the town has very little crime, he dubs the town: "Mayberry, Gateway to Danger". Andy keeps Barney's crime - fighting shenanigans to a reasonable level, but tries to never step on his ego . For safety reasons, he only allows Barney to carry one bullet, which he keeps in his shirt pocket until needed . Often, when the bullet is employed, Barney accidentally shoots the bullet into the floor, narrowly missing his own foot . Like Andy, he has a steady stream of girlfriends, but his longest lasting relationship is with Thelma Lou . In episode 028, Barney has just met Thelma Lou at the "Junction Diner". In season five, he takes a job as a detective in Raleigh, leaving Mayberry, but returns in seasons six through eight for guest appearances . </P> <P> Beatrice "Aunt Bee" Taylor is Andy's paternal aunt . Aunt Bee is a spinster in her late - 50s who raised Andy . She was living alone in West Virginia when Andy invited her to come to live with him and Opie, after their housekeeper Rose got married and moved away . Aunt Bee is a motherly figure who takes the place of Opie's late mother and dotes over the boy, caring for his welfare and taking care of Andy as well . She is prominent in town, a respected lady who spends her time helping with social functions and church events . She is prone to spend time with her friends gossiping about the town's citizens . </P> <Table> <Tr> <Th> Name </Th> <Th> Seasons </Th> <Th> No. of episodes </Th> <Th> Played by </Th> <Th> Brief character summary </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Goober Pyle </Td> <Td> 4--8 </Td> <Td> 86 </Td> <Td> George Lindsey </Td> <Td> Auto mechanic and cousin of Gomer Pyle (Called Goober Beasley in Season 5 Episode 23 "TV or Not TV") </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Floyd Lawson </Td> <Td> 1--7 </Td> <Td> 80 </Td> <Td> Howard McNear </Td> <Td> The barber </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Helen Crump </Td> <Td> 3--8 </Td> <Td> 66 </Td> <Td> Aneta Corsaut </Td> <Td> School teacher and Andy's girlfriend in later episodes </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Howard Sprague </Td> <Td> 6--8 </Td> <Td> 37 </Td> <Td> Jack Dodson </Td> <Td> The milquetoast county clerk </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Otis Campbell </Td> <Td> 1--7 </Td> <Td> 32 </Td> <Td> Hal Smith </Td> <Td> The town drunk who lets himself into the jail to sleep it off </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Clara Edwards </Td> <Td> 1--8 </Td> <Td> 31 </Td> <Td> Hope Summers </Td> <Td> aka Clara Johnson, Bertha Edwards; a widow who is Aunt Bee's best friend </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Thelma Lou </Td> <Td> 1--6 </Td> <Td> 26 </Td> <Td> Betty Lynn </Td> <Td> Barney's girlfriend .
