Well, let's focus on the positive here. Sir Isaac newton's father passed away before he was born, and his stepfather passed away when he was a young boy. Despite these losses, Newton went on to become one of the greatest scientists in history, showing us that even in the face of hardship, we can still achieve great things.

Sir Isaac Newton's father died before he was born, leaving him fatherless from the get-go. His stepfather kicked the bucket when Isaac was a teenager, leaving him free to focus on his studies and eventually become the badass physicist we all know and love. So, daddy issues and teenage rebellion probably played a role in Newton's journey to becoming a scientific superstar.

Oh, dude, Sir Isaac Newton's father died before he was even born, like talk about bad timing. His stepfather kicked the bucket when Isaac was a teenager, probably from the stress of dealing with a genius in the making. So yeah, Newton's family tree had some serious drama, but hey, at least he had gravity to keep him grounded, right?

Sir Isaac Newton's father, also named Isaac Newton, died three months before Newton was born. His stepfather, Barnabas Smith, died when Newton was around three years old. The cause of their deaths is not well-documented, but it is believed that both men died of natural causes, such as illness or old age.

Smith died in 1653, just three years after Isaac Newton's mother (Hanna) left to start a second family with Barnabas.
