Barack Obama has eight half-siblings -- seven of them living -- by four other marriages or relationships of his parents.

His father, Barack Obama Sr., had four children by a woman he married in Kenya before his 1960 marriage to Obama's mother in Hawaii. Two of those children -- son Abongo (Roy} and daughter Auma -- were born before Barack Obama Jr.

After Obama Sr. divorced Obama's mother in 1963, he married another American woman he brought to Kenya and had two more sons -- Mark and David, who was killed in a motorcycle accident. That marriage ended in divorce, after Obama Sr. resumed his relationship with his first wife.

The elder Obama had two other sons -- Abo and Bernard -- by his first wife, though Obama wrote in his memoirs that there is some question whether another man actually fathered Bernard.

Obama Sr. later had another son, George, by a woman he was involved with but apparently did not marry.

As for Obama's mother, the former Stanley Ann Dunham, she had a daughter, Maya Soetoro-Ng, from a second marriage to Lolo Soetoro.

How were Barack Obama's brothers and sisters raised?

Mr. Obama does not have any brothers and sisters. He has one half-sister, Maya Soetoro, through his mother's second marriage. Both Barack Obama and Maya Soetoro were raised in a middle-class environment (the president's mother has a PhD in Anthropology), encouraged to read and study, and encouraged to get a good education. They were also taught tolerance and respect for other cultures and religious traditions, even though they were not raised with any one particular religion. Mr. Obama committed himself to being a Christian (like his maternal grandparents, who helped to raise him), and his sister became a Buddhist.


How many brothers and sister do obama have?

Barack Obama had no biological brothers or sisters. His father Barack Sr. abandoned him and his mother, and Barack was an only child at that time. After that, his mother remarried, and had one child, a daughter Maya, with her new husband. Thus, Barack has one step-sister. There are many reports that say he has as many as seven other step-brothers and sisters, since his biological father had relationships with other women; but it is not clear if Barack has met any of these siblings, most of whom live in countries other than the United States.
