She was the second of five children born to David and Sophia (Lemke) Semler. She was born March 14, 1917, on the family farm in Cheyenne County, between St. Francis and Haigler, Nebraska. Hulda's first few years of elementary education were in both English and German, and along with regular schooling she had religious training. She then attended the Jacqua School while staying with the Reverend and Mrs. A. L. Hoelman. She graduated 8th grade from Hillcrest School. She was baptized April 5, 1917, by Reverend Otto C. J. Keller and was confirmed May 24, 1931, by the Reverend Borghshots in the Evangelical Lutheran Immanuel Church, which was located five miles North of the home place in Cheyenne County.
