Victor Houteff
Victor Tasho Houteff (March 2, 1885 – February 5, 1955) was merchant and a author. Houteff was born in Raicovo, Bulgaria, and as a child baptized as a member of the Bulgarian Orthodox Church. As a young man, he was engaged in the mercantile trade. In 1907, he and his brothers emigrated to the United States after, according to Victor Houteff's testimony, a mob that had taken up arms against his family and forced them onto a boat.〔http://shepherdsroddavidian.org/faq.html〕 Houteff would, on several occasions, return to visit his family, many of whom now live in the U.S. He is best known as the founder of the Davidian Seventh-day Adventist organization.〔http://mtccamp.org/〕
==Early life==
Victor Houteff arrived in the U.S. virtually penniless. He soon found work as a hotelier and grocer in the state of Illinois.
In 1919 he joined the Seventh-day Adventist Church.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 accessdate = 2006-06-07 )〕
In the midst of the Roaring Twenties Houteff journeyed west to California, so as to be closer to Seventh-day Adventist communities, like Loma Linda. In Los Angeles, California, he took a job as a salesman for Maytag, selling washers and other household appliances. An excellent salesman, Houteff soon saved enough money to start his own company which manufactured wholesome confectionery candies, or as Houteff himself referred to them, "health sweets."〔http://shepherds-rod.org/TGvol2/2tg35.htm〕
