William Wilberforce went to live with his aunt and uncle after the death of his mother when he was just nine years old. His aunt and uncle, who were more stable and able to provide for him, took him in to ensure he received a good education and upbringing. This change also positioned him closer to influential circles, which later aided his political career and reform efforts, particularly in the abolition of the slave trade.
