ENNO BLOHM, the genial and efficient Postmaster and a merchant of Blanco,
Monterey county, California, is a native of Germany. He was born April 25, 1854,
and came from the old country direct to California in 1874. After having farmed
on the Cooper ranch for two years, he removed into Corral de Tierra country, and
there farmed about 260 acres. He then spent two years in Germany, returning to
this State in 1884. After his return he resumed farming on the Bardin ranch, on
the west side of the Salinas river. Here he raised fine crops of English
mustard, marketing one year as high as 800 sacks, which he sold at 3 cents per
pound. He then, in 1889, bought a home at Blanco, and has since been engaged in
merchandising. Mr. Blohm chose for his wife and wedded Miss Katharine Dircks, a
native of his own country, and by her has six children, namely: Emma, Andrew,
Fred, William, George and Henry.
