<Li> Jesse Duke (Denver Pyle), referred to by just about everyone in Hazzard other than Boss Hogg as "Uncle Jesse", is the patriarch of the Duke clan, and the father - figure to all Dukes who stay with him on the somewhat dilapidated "Duke Farm ." Jesse apparently has no children of his own, and happily provides for his nephews and niece in the unexplained absence of all of their parents (Gy Waldron, the creator of the show, states on the DVDs that their parents were killed in a car wreck, but it was never mentioned in the show). In the third broadcast episode, "Mary Kaye's Baby", Jesse says that he has delivered many babies, including Bo and Luke . Jesse Duke, in his youth, had been a ridge - runner in direct competition with Boss Hogg whom he always calls "JD". However, while both Boss Hogg and Uncle Jesse would scowl at the mention of the other's name, the two enjoyed a lifelong "friendship" of sorts, with one helping the other when in desperate need . Jesse educated his nephews against Hogg, and often provides the cousins with inspirational sage advice . Uncle Jesse drives a white 1973 Ford F - 100 pickup truck . In the barn, he also has his old moonshine - running car, called "Sweet Tillie" in its first appearance (in the first - season episode "High Octane"), but referred to as "Black Tillie" in subsequent appearances . In the second - season episode "Follow That Still" and the sixth - season episode "The Boars Nest Bears", the marriage to and death of his wife is mentioned; he also mentions marrying her in the first - season episode "Luke's Love Story". His CB handle is "Shepherd ." </Li> <Li> Sheriff Rosco P. Coltrane (James Best) (1979--1985, 1997, 2000) is the bumbling and corrupt sheriff of Hazzard County and right - hand man and brother - in - law of its corrupt county administrator, Jefferson Davis "J.D." Hogg ("Boss Hogg"), whom Rosco calls his "little fat buddy", "Little Chrome Dome", "Little Meadow - Muffin", and several other names . In the early episodes, it is mentioned that Rosco spent the first 20 years of his career as a mostly honest lawman, but after the county voted away his pension Rosco joined Hogg in an effort to fund his retirement in his last couple of years as sheriff . Early episodes also portray him as a fairly hard - nosed, somewhat darker policeman character, who even shoots a criminal during the first season . As the series progressed and producers recognized how popular it had become with children, James Best altered his portrayal into a more bumbling, comical character . By the end of the first season, his origin had been virtually forgotten (and his job as sheriff appeared to become open ended). Rosco is also the younger brother of Lulu Coltrane Hogg (Boss Hogg's wife). Rosco frequently initiates car chases with Bo and Luke Duke, but the Duke boys usually elude Rosco by outwitting him, with Rosco typically wrecking his patrol car as a result from which he would nearly always escape unscathed . (Only two episodes--the fourth season's "Coltrane vs. Duke" and season six's "Too Many Roscos"--toy with the concept of him being injured . The first episode has him faking injury so the Duke Boys would lose the General Lee while the latter has James Best playing two characters . His normal character, Rosco, is presumed drowned while a criminal that looks like Rosco has a headache .) These chases are often the result of Rosco setting up illegal speed traps such as false or changing speed limit signs and various other trickery, which would evolve into being increasingly more cartoonish and far - fetched as the seasons passed . While he enjoys "hot pursuit" he seemingly (Boss Hogg as well) never intends for anyone to get seriously hurt . His middle initial,' P', was added at the start of the second season, and only one episode (the third season's "Mrs. Rosco P. Coltrane", in which he is subjected to a scam marriage) reveals his middle name, "Purvis". Rosco also has a soft spot for his basset hound Flash, introduced at the start of the third season . His radio codename is "Red Dog". When James Best briefly boycotted the show during the mid-second season, he was temporarily replaced by several "one - off" Sheriffs, the longest standing being Sheriff Grady Bird, played by Dick Sargent, who appeared in two episodes ("Jude Emery" and "Officer Daisy Duke"). </Li> <Li> Boss Jefferson Davis "J.D." Hogg (Sorrell Booke) is the wealthiest man in Hazzard County and owns most of its property and businesses--whether directly or by holding the mortgages over the land . Usually dressed in an all - white suit, he is the fat, greedy, corrupt County Commissioner with visions of grandeur, a voracious appetite for food, who constantly orders Rosco to "Get them Duke Boys!" He is also Bo and Luke's Probation officer, when Bo and Luke need to leave Hazzard they always get permission from him . Boss Hogg is also married to (and dominated by) Rosco's "fat sister" (Lulu Hogg), a point that does not always sit well with either Boss Hogg or Rosco; Hogg sometimes claims that Rosco is indebted to him because of it, though his on - screen interactions with Lulu typically show him loving her deeply (and giving in to her stronger personality). In addition to his role as county commissioner he is also the police commissioner, land commissioner, and bank president . Boss is also the chief of the Hazzard Fire Department and the owner of or primary mortgage holder on most of the places in the county, including the Boar's Nest, Rhubottem's Store, Cooter's garage and the Duke Farm . It is implied in some episodes that he is the Justice of the Peace but in others Hazzard relies on a circuit judge . In the episode "Coltrane vs. Duke", Hogg represents Rosco when he sues the Dukes, implying that he is a licensed attorney . His vehicle is a white 1970 Cadillac Coupe de Ville convertible, with bull horns mounted on the hood . In the first few seasons, he is almost always driven around by a chauffeur . His old moonshine - running car was called the "Grey Ghost". Every morning, Boss Hogg would drink coffee and eat raw liver (Sorrell Booke, a method actor, actually ate the raw liver). Boss Hogg is described in one analysis as "an ineffectual bad guy--hence amusing". </Li> <Li> Cooter Davenport (Ben Jones) is the Hazzard County mechanic, nicknamed "Crazy Cooter". In the early episodes, he is a wild man, often breaking the law (such as stealing the Sheriff's patrol car for impounding his in "One Armed Bandits", reportedly borrowing Luke's car prior to the same episode and using it to "run the sheriff off the road to make him mad" to facilitate the aforementioned theft of the sheriff's car, running moonshine for Boss Hogg in "Mary Kaye's Baby", seemingly breaking into Boss Hogg's home to retrieve a trophy for an upcoming race in "Luke's Love Story", and "borrowing" the President's Limousine for a joy - ride ("Limo One Is Missing") when it is accidentally left unguarded . By the end of the first season, he has settled down and become an easy going good ol' boy . Although not mentioned in the first couple of episodes, by the mid-first season, he owns "Cooter's Garage" in Hazzard County Square, directly across from the Sheriff's Department . Cooter is an "Honorary Duke", as he shares the same values and often assists the Dukes in escaping Rosco's clutches, or helps them to foil Boss Hogg's schemes . During the second season, Ben Jones left the series for a few episodes due to a dispute over whether the character should be clean shaven or have a full beard . In his absence, Cooter's place was filled by several of Cooter's supposed cousins who were never mentioned before or since . Jones returned when the dispute was solved--Cooter would be clean shaven (although, for continuity reasons, with the episodes being broadcast in a different order to that which they were filmed, he was not clean shaven until the third season onwards). Cooter drives a variety of trucks, including Fords, Chevys, and GMCs . His CB handle is "Crazy Cooter" and he often starts his CB transmissions with "Breaker one, Breaker one, I might be crazy but I ain't dumb, Craaaazy Cooter comin' atcha, come on ." </Li>
