James Naismith's parents, John and Margaret Naismith, both died when he was young. His father passed away from pneumonia when Naismith was just 9 years old, and his mother died shortly thereafter, leaving him orphaned. Following their deaths, he was raised by his mother's relatives in Ontario, Canada. This early loss had a significant impact on his life and character.
