Bob Marley One Love One Heart Girls T-Shirt

Bob Marley was born in the small village of Saint Ann Parish, Jamaica as Nesta Robert Marley.

A Jamaican passport official would later swap his first and middle names. His father Norval Sinclair Marley was a white Jamaican of English descent.

Norval was a Marine officer and captain, as well as a plantation overseer, when he married Cedella Booker, a black Jamaican then eighteen years old.

Norval provided financial support for his wife and child, but seldom saw them, as he was often away on trips. In 1955, when Marley was 10 years old, his father died of a heart attack at age 60.

Marley suffered racial prejudice as a youth, because of his mixed racial origins and faced questions about his own racial identity throughout his life.
