Here is a list of characters in the "Out of the Frying Pan" story hour current through Session #81.
Careful it includes a ton spoilers and in most cases tells you which session the character first appeared in and when he or she died, if they are no longer with us.
The PCs are not included. Characters that are mentioned, but never make an appearance are not listed (so no Barnstable the Brown or Glamorganna the Green Dragon).
They are organized in alphabetical order by the name they are most commonly called. So, 'Finn Fisher' would be under 'Finn', while 'Boris E. Crumb' would be listed under 'Crumb'.
