↠ Born in Lawrence, Kansas on May 2nd, 1983, to John and Mary Winchester.
↠ At the age of six months (November, 1983), Azazel (who had made a deal with his mother several years prior) appears in his nursery and feeds him demon blood.
↠ Azazel's visit is interrupted by Mary Winchester, who is promptly killed. The fire upon the ceiling that was a part of her death burned down the family's house.
↠ John Winchester leaves Lawrence with his two sons – Dean, Sam's older brother, and the still-infant Sam. His life as a hunter begins as he seeks revenge for Mary's death and his children are brought along for the ride.
↠ Sam spends his childhood in motels and homes of family friends while his father hunts.
↠ He grows up resentful of the lifestyle, wanting nothing but normalcy.
↠ At the age of 18, after a cataclysmic blowup between he and his father, Sam leaves John and Dean behind to pursue a college education at Stanford in California.
↠ At the age of 20, he meets a young woman named Jessica Moore. They begin dating, the relationship becomes serious, and they begin living together. Sam has every intention of proposing to her.
↠ At the age of 22, it's learned that his LSAT scores are phenomenal and he has an interview to be fully paid for by the school at Stanford Law. He's pretty much about to be set for life. And then…
↠ Dean shows up. Their father's gone missing, and Dean recruits his brother to go hunting like back in the day to help find John. He's never told Jessica what their family does, so Dean mentions that John's just been on a hunting trip and hasn't been home in a few days. It's all very cryptic. Sam is reluctant, but family is family, and eventually concedes to go.
↠ They don't find John in their first effort. When Sam returns to Stanford, he comes home to Jessica dead on the ceiling in the same way his mother died. The house catches fire. Sam's attempt at a normal life is cut short as he vows for vengeance on the thing that killed her. He joins Dean, and their lives as hunters begin.
↠ The mission to find their father becomes full-blown hunting as a duo. While they haven't yet found John, he leaves them clues and messages. He also tells friends (and/or previous contacts, people who are looking for his help, etc.) to "call his son" if they need anything. Dean has become John's stand-in. The boys essentially take his place.
↠ One of the boys' hunts takes them back home to Lawrence, where their old house is being haunted by not one but two spirits. One of them is Mary, their mother, who expels the poltergeist to save Sam. This is the first time he has a solid memory of her to hold onto.
↠ Sam begins to experience precognition. He has visions of things in dreams and sometimes while conscious, and their hunts begin to follow the track of his "gut feelings". He doesn't tell Dean right away, because it's something they'd normally see as supernatural and hunt down. He's worried about being judged or a freak and keeps it to himself the best he can.
↠ Sam and Dean separate due to differences, and Sam returns to California to try to find their dad. He meets a blonde woman named Meg, who seems to be friendly enough (but who is actually a demon working to manipulate Sam and keep him far, far from Dean and John.) When it comes down to it, though, no matter how independent from their families the two discuss themselves wanting to be, Sam would put his life on the line to help his brother and winds up returning to Dean just in time to save his gung-ho, guns-blazing, too-dumb-on-his-own ass from a horrible, bloody fate.
