I do not know if I am related to this KUEHL line - R/S MAK http://www.rootsweb.com/~wiwood/MAK-roots +++++ Greetings MarciaAnn ! Thank you for all the information on the Blocker and Kuehl families. Do you have access to the IA State Gazetteer and Business Directories that apparently list the Kuehl's in Manning? We know that Dora/Dorothea Blocker divorced Henry F. Blocker sometime between 1890-1898. Fred Kuehl (who we think was Dorothea's son) was born on January 28, 1898 somewhere in IA , possibly in Carroll County or maybe Scott County. We know Fred died on March 11, 1931 in Minneapolis. He was married to Lydia P. (maiden name unknown). Apparently they had no children, although we don't know that for sure. We don't know who Fred's father was, and the only reason we know of Fred is that he was listed in a family Bible and he was apparently photographed with his half-sisters. I don't know if this helps you at all. What we really need to do is have someone look at the marriage and divorce records in the Carroll county courthouse to get some idea what the dates were for these events. It would be especially helpful to find Fred Kuehl's birth certificate. The Blocker family spent a fair amount of time in Manning IA , so maybe that's where Fred's father met Dorothea. Lots of things happened that we can't quite figure out. Thank you again for your trouble. Janet <janetmenning@yahoo.com>
