### Early life

Jergöpotornick was born on 12 July 1929 in Ofshen, Goog Municipality. Her mother, Gipsia, and her father, Jerg, were travelers who resided in a caravan and sold elixirs, trinkets, and other goods to locals. Jergöpotornick had seventeen siblings, fourteen older and three younger. They were frequently harassed by locals and called "gypsies", "thieves", and "swindlers". Gipsia frequently prostituted herself to support the family, and it is unknown whether the Jergöpotornick children are actually the offspring of Jerg.
