SHAKESPEARE

So according to his work and very few legal documents that have managed survive, there is not really

much known about one of literature's greatest influences, William Shakespeare. The earliest record available and found states that he was baptized April 26, 1564. Now, back in the day it was always more than common to be baptized three days after the day you were actually born.
THAT BEING SAID: It is believed he was born April 23, 1564; but there is no conclusive evidence to support this.
We do know, though, that he was born in Stratford, which is located in the where-abouts of London. His father, John, became a success with being a merchant, alderman, and high baliff. Unfortunately, this fortune slowly declined and by the 1570's was completely gone. His mothers name was Mary, who birthed eight children with John. Three of these children died in their early childhood.
There are no documentations that show any proof of William having education. With his knowledge of Latin and Classical Greek though, we can only assume he went to the literature school in London. We are unsure of how long he attended, but based on his literature knowledge it is more than likely that he got a full solid education.
The next documented moment of Shakespeare's life was his marriage to Anne Hathaway on November 28, 1572. The couple shared a daughter and a set of twins, unfortunately on the twins died by the age 11. After this, no further documents were found on William until sometime around 1592 in London. It is estimated he arrived there in 1588, the rest in unclear.
In 1611, Shakespeare write out his:
-He left all of his fortunes and earnings to his first daughter
-He left 300 euros to his other twinned daughter
-He left his "second best bed" to his wife Anne
William Shakespeare died on his alleged birthday, April 23, 1616. His tomb now resides at the Holy Trinity in Startford, London.
Thanks to his two companions John Heminges and Henry Condell, in 1623 they printed the First Folio edition of his plays- making Shakespeare one of literature's greatest influences.
