General Notes: Husband - Nicholas Bloom

---

He was born in Hesse Darmstadt, Germany, and attended school in that country, coming to Pennsylvania soon after attaining legal age and settling in Cambria County. He became the owner of lands vast in extent, clearing the farm on which he lived of its heavy growth of timber, and there lived until his death.
At the time of the Civil War he was drafted for service in the Union army, but never went to the front because of the fact that he was above the age limit for such military duty.
He supported the Democratic party. He and his wife were communicants of the Lutheran Church.

General Notes: Wife - Catharine Lutz

---

In her immigration to the United States there entered in an element of uncertainty that, while it ended happily, must have caused her some anxiety at the time. She had expected to be met at the Hollidaysburg station by a brother, but owing to some misunderstanding, while she was journeying across the Atlantic, he had departed for Illinois, and brother and sister were not reunited until forty years later. Fortunately for the young girl, for she was little more than that at the time, kind friends offered her sheltering care, which in a strange land three thousand miles from home, she was glad to accept.

She was more than eighty-two years old when she died.
