Herman Melville was born in New York City on August 1, 1819, to Allan Melvill (1782¿1832) and Maria (Gansevoort) Melvill (1791¿1872). Herman was the third of eight children in a family of Scottish and Dutch descent. His siblings, who played important roles in his career as well as in his emotional life, were Gansevoort (1815¿1846); Helen Maria (1817¿1888); Augusta (1821¿1876); Allan (1823¿1872); Catherine (1825¿1905); Frances Priscilla (1827¿1885); and Thomas (1830¿1884), who eventually became a governor of Sailors' Snug Harbor. Part of a well-established and colorful Boston family, Allan Melvill spent much time out of New York and in Europe as a commission merchant and an importer of French dry goods.
