J. M. Barrie was born in Kirriemuir, Scotland. His father, David Barrie was a handloom weaver, and mother, Margaret Ogilvy, the daughter of a stonemason. They had ten children, James Barrie being the ninth child and third son. When Barrie was seven, his brother David, who had been the mother's favorite child, died in a skating accident. Barrie set himself to console his mother, and later attributed this as his start down the road to becoming an author. After her death Barrie published in 1896 an adoring biography of his mother.
