-Next up was to download and install the emoji fonts from https://www.google.com/get/noto/help/emoji/. Installation was done through font-manager. I did a local install, which put the font files in ~/.local/share/fonts. This directory was different from some advice in the web which showed a manual install in ~./fonts. Apparently the latter is deprecated (https://github.com/13rac1/emojione-color-font/issues/14). You could install it manually via command line, but font-manager worked well for me.
-After the installation and running the code above, the emojis displayed. The I created a .emacs file for myself to make it load each time I start it up.
