John is a younger brother of Nancy Blacow.
John first married Catherine Unknown, b. ca 1821 in Germany. They had three kids, William, b. 1846 Missouri: Alice, b. 1848 Missouri; and Mary, b. 1850 Monroe County, Illinois.
Catherine died soon after Mary was born.
John then married Sophia Rathke in Monroe County, Illinois in 1853 and soon after they moved to Alameda County, California where they had 10 more kids.
John's older sister Nancy (Blacow) Proctor and her husband John also left Monroe County, Illinois in 1853 and went to Alameda County, California. The two families (John's first wife and 3 kids) lived next to each other in 1850 so they probably traveled together.
