Date: 6/21/2002 4:37:00 AM  From Authorid: 28946    Ma and Pa Kettle were an old couple that had alot of kids. They were poor and Pa was lazy. Ma was hard working and the actress that played her was Marjorie Main. The first movie that introduced them was the Egg and I with Fred McMurray and Claudette Colburn in the early 40's I think. If I find out more, I'll let you know. They are really funny movies.
