Mark Twain was born on November 30, 1835, in Florida, Missouri, USA, to a family of poor lawyers. He was the sixth of seven children. His father was a local lawyer with a meager income and a poor family.

Mark Twain Jr. had to work when he was in school. His father died when he was eleven years old, and he began working independently, first as an apprentice in a printing house, as a newspaper courier and typesetter, and later as a sailor and helmsman on the Mississippi River.

In the fall of 1839, Mark Twain's family moved to a port city on the Mississippi River in Hannibal, Missouri, which became the inspiration for the city of St. Petersburg in his later books, The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and The Wanderings of a Naughty Boy.
