In Kansas, and with her Uncle Henry and Aunt Em, are where and with whom Dorothy Gale lives. Specifically, she lives in their isolated, old farmhouse. She lives there, because she's an orphan. No information is given as to how exactly she's related to her foster parents, who her parents are, or why they no longer are around.

Author Lyman Frank Baum [May 15, 1856-May 6, 1919] doesn't indicate whether the blood relation is through Aunt Em or Uncle Henry. But later appearances in other books in the Oz series seem to indicate that the blood ties may be through Uncle Henry. For example, Uncle Henry comes out and says that like mother like daughter, Dorothy is a dreamer.
