Charlie Patton, better known as Charley Patton, was an American Delta blues singer, guitarist and songwriter. Considered by many to be the "Father of the Delta Blues", he inspired most Delta blues musicians. Born: April 1891 (probable) in Hinds County, Mississippi (near the town of Edwards) Died: April 28, 1934 on the Heathman-Dedham plantation in Mississippi (near Indianola) Patton's parentage and race also are uncertain. His parents were Bill and Annie Patton, but locally he was regarded as having been fathered by former slave Henderson Chatmon, several of whose children became popular Delta musicians, as solo performers and as members of groups such as the Mississippi Sheiks.
