- When Annette Funicello and Sloane were 17 years old, she was made "The Sweetheart of the San Fernando Valley Mayors." It was Sloane's honor to escort her to the award ceremony. Annette would also appear with Sloane later in a television special titled An Evening at the Inn (1962).
- Although he received no on-screen credit for his role as "Billy Kettle" in Ma and Pa Kettle Back on the Farm (1951), he is probably the one most remembered portraying that part. Sloane is also one of the youngest actors to have ever been under contract to Universal Pictures. Notwithstanding the "Official Kettle Family Portrait", director Edward Sedgwick insisted that the young Sloane be the only child used exclusively for publicity pictures promoting the film.
- Son of Jimmie Jackson and Anita Coleman.
- Sloane's godparents were actors Lash La Rue and Barbra Fuller, who were married at the time of Sloane's birth but later divorced.
