The product of a short-lived affair between Homer's father, [[Abraham Simpson]], and [[Gaby|a female carnival worker]], Herb was adopted by Edward Powell and Mililani Osler. He put himself through [[Harvard University|Harvard]] by working odd jobs because his adoptive parents refused to pay for his admission (or may not have been able to afford his college tuition). He then founded Powell Motors, a car company based in Detroit. Herb was overjoyed to learn that he had a birth family and bonded with his nieces and nephew, and - in his role as CEO - allowed Homer to design a car. However, Homer's car was a failure and it bankrupted the company. Herb ended up becoming a street vagrant. He prefers to be called "Unky Herb" by his nieces and nephew, because he thinks the term "uncle" is too formal.

He proceeded to mass-produce his new product and regained his fortune. He then proceeded to pay back the Simpson family the $2,000, but also bought Homer a vibrating chair, Marge a new washer and dryer set, Bart a life membership in the National Rifle Association, Lisa a monthly set of classic novels, and a promise that he will buy something nice for Maggie.

Barbara Belfry is the manager of St. Giles Orphanage and the wife of Sideshow Mel. She also used to be a javelin thrower.

Barb used to be a javelin thrower, until her breasts became too big to be an athlete any more.

When Ned Flanders came across a large amount of money, he donated it to St. Giles Orphanage, which Barb ran.

Barb became smitten with Ned and asked him out on a date to the Springfield Winter Market, which Ned accepted. After their date, they went back to Barb's house and Barb invited Ned in. As they made out, Ned noticed that Barb had multiple pictures of her with Sideshow Mel, then realized that she was married to him. Barb explained to Ned that she and Mel had an arrangement and that she could sleep with anyone she wanted to. However, Ned was uncomfortable with this and decided to leave...
