Personal Notes:
From Manetta Ohrt's Booklet Blocker History is the following:
The "Traer Star-Clipper" (Fri., Feb. 7, 1958, Trier, Tama Co., IA) newspaper has the following
from an interview with Herman F. Blocker. "My father, Asmus Blocker, a native of Germany, who
left that country for a new life in the United States, crossed the ocean in a sailing vessel,
the voyage requiring 30 days. The wind was against the crew much of the way. The seas were
infested with pirate ships at that time. One took after the ship on which my father was a passenger.
It had one more sail than the pirate ship and it got away, but not until it had been chased far
out of its course - somewhere between Florida and Cuba. Some of the passengers and crew contacted
cholera on the trip. Several died, and their bodies buried at sea."
