 | | Joseph Grimaldi was born December 18, 1778, son of Signor Joseph Grimaldi, ballet-master at Drury Lane and Rebecca Brooker, a dancer in the Drury Lane corps de ballet. |
 | | Their son, Joseph Samuel Grimaldi, showed promise of having his father's talent, but even that turned sour in the end. |
 | | Soon after the Joe retired, J.S. Grimaldi, as he was known, fell into a life of dissipation and drunkenness, and died at the age of thirty. |
