Benjamin Franklin's father, Josiah Franklin, was a candle maker and soap maker, while his mother, Abiah Folger Franklin, was a homemaker. Josiah had a modest business that supported the family, and he had a total of 17 children, including Benjamin, who was one of the youngest. The family's relatively humble background influenced Franklin's work ethic and entrepreneurial spirit.
