His family, particularly his mother Maud, his maternal grandmother Lelia Butler, and Caroline "Callie" Barr (the black woman who raised him from infancy) crucially influenced the development of Faulkner's artistic imagination. On September 21, 1902, the Falkner family settled in Oxford, where he lived on and off for the rest of his life. Soon after his first birthday, his family moved to Ripley, Mississippi. He had three younger brothers: Murry Charles "Jack" Falkner, author John Faulkner, and Dean Swift Faulkner.
Faulkner was born in New Albany, Mississippi, the first of four sons of Murry Cuthbert Falkner and Maud Butler. William Cuthbert Faulkner was an American writer and Nobel Prize laureate from Oxford, Mississippi.
