King was born in Atlanta, Georgia (on Auburn Avenue) to the Rev. Martin Luther King, Sr. and Alberta Williams King. (Birth records for Martin Luther King Jr. list his first name as Michael, apparently due to some confusion on the part of the family doctor regarding the true name of King's father, who was known as Mike throughout his childhood.) He graduated from Morehouse College with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Sociology in 1948. At Morehouse, King was mentored by President Benjamin Mays, a civil rights leader. Later he graduated from Crozer Theological Seminary in Chester, Pennsylvania [1] with a Bachelor of Divinity degree in 1951. He received his Ph.D. in Systematic Theology from Boston University in 1955.
King married Coretta Scott on June 18, 1953. King's father performed the wedding ceremony in Scott's parents' house in Marion, Alabama.
King and Scott had four children:
* Yolanda Denise (November 17, 1955, Montgomery, Alabama) * Martin Luther III (October 23, 1957, Montgomery, Alabama) * Dexter Scott (January 30, 1961, Atlanta, Georgia) * Bernice Albertine (March 28, 1963, Atlanta, Georgia)
All four children have followed their father's footsteps as civil rights activists, although their pet issues and opinions differ.
Dr. King and his wife Coretta Scott King had four children -- two sons and two daughters. Their names: Yolanda Denise (1955-2007), Martin Luther III (born 1957), Dexter Scott (born 1961) and Bernice Albertine (born 1963).
