How was Martin Luther King family life like?

Martin Luther King was poor... the above answer is very uninformative. Martin's family background was rooted in rural Georgia. A. D. Williams was already a minister himself when he moved from the country to Atlanta in 1893. There he took over a small struggling church with some 13 members, Ebenezer Baptist. In 1899 Williams married Jennie Celeste Parks (1873-1941). The couple had one child that survived, Alberta Christine, M. L. King Jr.'s mother. A. D. Williams was a forceful preacher who built Ebenezer into a major church. Michael King Sr. came to Atlanta in 1918. He had known the hard life of a sharecropper in a poor farming country. His father, James Albert King (1864-1933), was irreligious, became an alcoholic, and beat his wife, Delia Linsey King (1873-1924). In the fall of 1926, Michael Sr. married Alberta Williams after a courtship of some eight years. The newlyweds moved into A. D. Williams's home.
