From the Paper:

"James Douglas Morrison was born in Melbourne, Florida December 8, 1943 to Clara and Steve Morrison. Jim was raised by his strict, conservative parents but would grow to express drastically different views than those taught to him. Clara was a housewife and daughter of a lawyer. Steve was an officer in the U.S. Navy. Jim had two younger siblings: a brother, Andy, and a sister, Anne. Anne was the youngest of the three. Because of the position Jim's father had in the military, Jim's family was required to move quite often due to transfer orders. "
