MacFarlane's mother, Ann Perry (née Sager), was born in Newburyport, Massachusetts.[3] His father, Ronald Milton MacFarlane, was also born in Newburyport, and is of Scottish, English and Welsh ancestry, partly by way of Canada.[4] MacFarlane's parents met in 1970 where they both lived and worked in Boston, and married later that year.[3] The couple moved to Kent, Connecticut in 1972, where Ann Perry began working in the Admissions Office at South Kent School and later in the College Guidance and Admissions Offices at Kent School, a selective college preparatory school where Ronald was also a teacher.[3][5] During his childhood, MacFarlane developed an interest in illustration and began drawing cartoon characters Fred Flintstone and Woody Woodpecker, as early as two years old.[6] By the age of five, MacFarlane knew that he would want to pursue a career in animation, and began by creating flip books, after his parents found a book on the subject.[7] Four years later, at nine, MacFarlane began publishing a weekly comic strip entitled "Walter Crouton" for The Kent Good Times Dispatch, the local newspaper in Kent, Connecticut, which paid him five dollars per week.
