The Death Eaters are those wizards who followed Voldemort. There seems to be a fairly small number of them, although the ones that apparate to Voldemort's side when the Dark Mark on their arms summons them may be the inner circle of his strongest supporters only. Some of the Death Eaters have children at Hogwarts.
The dark wizard known as "Lord Voldemort" was born in 1927 in Little Hangleton. His mother, a witch, and, according to Voldemort, a descendent of Salazar Slytherin, had fallen in love with Tom Riddle, a Muggle. Tom Riddle lived in a fine-looking manor that stood on a hill overlooking the village of Little Hangleton. The manor house was one of the largest and grandest buildings for miles around. When Voldemort's mother told her husband that she was a witch, he abandoned her, returning to his parents' home. As Lord Voldemort told the story, his father "didn't like magic". Voldemort's mother died just after giving birth to him, living just long enough to name him Tom Riddle, after his father and Marvolo, after his grandfather. He was raised in a Muggle orphanage.

Hogwarts, A History chronicles the early years of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizadry, and explains the roles the four founders of the school had in teaching their students.
Godric Gryffindor, Helga Hufflepuff, Rawena Ravenclaw, and Salazar Slytherin built the castle that would house the school far from the eyes of the persecuting muggles, who at the time, were very paranoid of those with magical abilities.
Hogwarts, A Hisytory also details the fallout Salazar Slytherin had with the other three founders, (notably Godric Gryffindor) over who to admit to the school for instruction in the magical arts.
He wanted a more selective process in determining who would be admitted, and Godric Gryffindor opposed him.
According to Hogwarts, A History, this led to Salazar leaving the school, after building a secret chamber that one of his descendants would find, and use the dark powers within, to systematically elminate those who were not, as he called it, purebloods.
Hogwarts, A History is a must read for any and all serious students of Hogwarts history.
