Answer:
William Cowper was born on November 26, 1731 in Berkhamsted, Hertfordshire, England to John and Ann Cowper. His father was the rector of the Church of St. Peter. Sadly, the couple lost seven other children in infancy, and Ann died giving birth to William's one surviving brother, John, in 1737.
Ann's death deeply devastated William throughout his life, and fifty years later inspired him to write the powerful poem 'On The Receipt of my Mother's Picture.' Ann's brother Robert and his family grew close to young William after her death, and gave him a picture of her that he treasured. They also introduced him to books that helped spark his love of reading and, eventually, writing.
