January 2, 1768 - January 1853
David Silbers was born on January 2, 1768, at his parents' shop called Silbers butchery, a cosher butcher in the city of Lutheria. He started working in the shop around twelve years old, doing all kinds of chores and helping his father run the butchery. As he got older, he took over more tasks from his father, starting with handling the customers and later doing the preparations and cooking. After his father passed away, David inherited the shop and continued to run it in his example.

Elsbeth Silbers was born on April 20, 1820 as the second child of David and Lena Silbers in a small apartment above her father's butchery in Lutheria. Elsbeth and her family are Jewish and one of the few Jewish families in the area, with their Shul being in the city of Lutheria. As Elsbeth is the second child, she had more freedom in choosing her life than her older brother Joël, who was destined to take over the family business. From a young age, Elsbeth had an interest in becoming a nurse, but there was, unfortunately, not enough money to pay the tuition. Instead, Elsbeth offered to volunteer at the hospital in Lutheria, where she mainly assisted in caring for the elderly and long-term patients, many of whom were part of the Jewish community. Additionally, she helped those in need by collecting food and clothing for the less fortunate.

When Esther was only five years old, her mother died suddenly, without any trace of a preexisting illness. The cause of her death remains unknown to this day. Esther's father became a shell of himself, becoming a quiet and reclusive individual. His only goal in life was to bring up his daughter and give her the life she deserved.
