"Les Arts et la Littérature chez les Franco-américains de la Nouvelle  
Angleterre" by Dr. Paul Chassé (Cambridge, Mass. 1977), mentions  
"Emile Côté (sic) qui chantait avec Jessica Dragonnette, ou avec
Jane Froman à la NBC, ou avec l’orchestre de Paul Whiteman."

That would seem to clear up the spelling. Also the inference is that  
he was a New Englander.
