    Robert Browning was born on May 7, 1812, in Camberwell (a suburb of London), the first child of Robert and Sarah Anna Browning. His mother was a fervent Evangelical and an accomplished pianist.

On this very modest salary he was able to marry, raise a family, and to acquire a library of 6000 volumes.
