Dolly Parton is one of the most famous, most successful, and most universally beloved performers in American history. Parton wasn't born into showbiz — she came from humble beginnings, and she wasn't alone. Parton is one of 12 children, all of whom have their own story to tell.

Dolly Parton is the fourth-oldest sibling in a family that would come to include a total of 12 children born to Robert and Avie Lee Parton .

Robert Lee Parton came from a long line of farmers, and early in adulthood, he toiled as a sharecropper. By the time Dolly turned 5 in 1951, Lee had acquired his own parcel of land in Sevier County, Tenn., which he used to farm tobacco and raise livestock. To help fund his large family's needs, he also worked in construction.

The patriarch of the Parton family died in August 2003 at age 79, after suffering from a series of strokes. His death preceded 80-year-old Avie Lee's by four months. The couple married in 1939, when Avie, raised in a family of musicians and the daughter of a South Carolina preacher, was just 19 years old.
