A few weeks after my birth my father moved to Giinsbach in the Munster Valley, where with my three sisters and one brother I lived through a very happy childhood and youth, unclouded but for the frequent illnesses of my father. My mother Adele, nee Schillinger, was a daughter of the Pastor of Miihlbach in the Munster Valley, Upper Alsace. My paternal grandfather was schoolmaster and organist at Pfaffenhofen in Lower Alsace, and three of his brothers occupied similar posts. I WAS born on January 14th, 1875, at Kaysersberg in Upper Alsace, the second child of Louis Schweitzer who was shepherding just then the little flock of evangelical believers in that Catholic place.
