Taylor Swift comes from a long line of accomplished ancestors. Her great-grandfather was a wealthy Philadelphia merchant at the turn of the nineteenth century, and her grandmother was an opera singer. At age nine, the girl's parents did everything they could to support her musical and theatrical interests.
