Such citizens as he show to the people of the nation what recent immigration has done and can do in bringing to our shores men whom we are proud to gain and would be loth to lose. Hans C. Blunk was born in Germany on April 29, 1866, the son of G.(J) Henry and Elizabeth (Blunk) Blunk. His parents were native Germans and came to Clinton county, Iowa, in 1884, where his father purchased seven hundred and twenty acres of land, which he improved and lived on until his death in 1906, at the age of sixty-three, his wife having preceded him to the unseen land in 1903. They were the parents of two sons and three daughters, all of whom, save one daughter, are living. In politics the elder Mr. Blunk was a Democrat, and he and his family were true to the Lutheran faith of their German ancestors. He was a man of strong character and of more than ordinary ability, whose judgment was highly regarded by his neighbors. Hans C. Blunk was reared on a German farm and attended the public schools of his native country. When seventeen years old he came to the United States, spent one year in Nebraska, then located in Clinton countv, where he has since lived. The owner of one hundred and thirty acres of land which he devotes to stock raising and general farming, he receives from it a competence and is accumulating a good estate. Politically, his affiliations are with the Republican party, and in religion he has not departed from the Lutheran faith. Mr. Blunk was married in 1890 to Mary Husmann, a native of Germany, the daughter of Hans and Wiebke (Struve) Husmann. Her mother died in Germany, and her father came to this county in 1884, and now lives in Davenport, Iowa. Mrs. Blunk has been a faithful wife and true helpmate, and has borne to her husband four children: Elsie, who died at the age of eighteen; Werner, now eighteen; Emiel, aged fifteen; and Emilie, aged twelve. Mr. Blunk is considered by all who know him to be one of the solid and substantial men of his community.
