John Shakespeare's house, believed to be Shakespeare's Birthplace, in Stratford-upon-Avon. Shakespeare was probably educated at the King's New School in Stafford a free school chartered in 1553, about a quarter-mile from his home. At the age of 18, Shakespeare married 26 year-old Anne Hathaway. Nicholas Rowe, Shakespeare's first biographer, recounted a Stafford legend that Shakespeare fled the town for London to escape prosecution for deer poaching in the estate of local squire Thomas Lucy. It is not known definitively when Shakespeare began writing, but contemporary allusions and records of performances show that several of his plays were on the London stage by 1592. Throughout his career, Shakespeare divided his time between London and Stafford. Shakespeare died on 23 April 1616, at the age of 52.
