September 7, 1856

David Hochter was born on September 7, 1856, on the Hochter farm as the third child of Samuel Hochter and Elsbeth Silbers. Unfortunately, his older brother Mozes Hochter passed away after complications at birth, which plunged the whole family into a period of sadness. His mother, Elsbeth, even fell into depression. When she found out she was pregnant with David, she feared that this child might also die. Elsbeth did not leave her bed, sang religious chants, and prayed that the baby would be fine. Although the stress took its toll on Elsbeth, David was born healthy and without any complications. For the first few weeks, Elsbeth did not leave his side, afraid that something might happen to him.
