Harriet Tubman was born into slavery, and family structures were often disrupted under such conditions. While it is believed that she had nine siblings, the exact number of siblings and their names can be difficult to verify due to limited records from that time. Additionally, there may have been extended family members living nearby who were considered siblings in a broader sense.
