Esther was born in Lynchburg, Virginia in 1891 and, soon after, her family relocated to Richmond. Two days before her first birthday, her father died while in surgery. It fell upon her older half-brothers to take care of the family. Some of Esther's brothers worked in the iron industry and the family lived in the Oregon Hill neighborhood. Later, she met Joseph Samuel Danner who was also an iron worker. They married in 1908. Esther and Joseph would go on to have five children, but their first child, Lizzie, fell ill and died very young.
