The Arquettes are an American acting family who have been in show business for three generations.
Patriarch Cliff Arquette, born in 1904, was a TV actor and comedian who was known for his persona Charley Weaver, which became so popular that he rarely appeared in public not in character.
He married Julie Harrison in 1934 and they divorced in 1942. He had son Lewis Arquette in 1935 with Mildred Nesbitt Le May, however it is unclear what her relationship was with Cliff.
Lewis Arquette took after his father and become an actor, as well as a writer and producer. He is known for his roles in Little Nicky, Tango & Cash, The Great Outdoors and starring as J.D. Pickett on The Waltons.
He married fellow actress and acting coach Brenda Denaut in 1963, going on to have five children together. The family was based in Chicago before moving to a commune near Arlington, Virginia in the mid 1960s.
