Need to help a little here. His father hailed from County CORK, Ireland, not "County Court". And no, Sr. did not train Emmett Jr. for the act. He publicly stated his dismay that Jr. took--Sr. said "stole"--his make-up, character name, and routines without asking or getting permission. Jr. broke a cardinal rule among clowns that one never copies from another. This caused a serious rift between father and son that was never reconciled.

I had a hard time trying to find Emmitt Kelly without make up and then I happened on this channel, good work, I very much enjoyed
Senior's grandson Joseph was also a clown.There was an article about the three of them in My Weekly Reader when I was in the second grade.
I met him in Providence in 1944.
BTW. I love your videos.

He wanted to be buried with his sister.
Why are they taking the car? Who's car is that?
