***********

His baptism was reported in pastor Daniel Hirsch's "incidental records," published with Zion Ridge church German-to-English translations, page 36, as BOCK, Karl Paul Johann, born 13 Nov. 1868, Fearing Township, son of Johannes Bock and Sarah Kerbs, bapt. 24 Nov. 1868. Witnesses: Margaretha, wife of Jacob Simon, Parzer (?) __.

A related baptism that same year shows Johannes Bock as witness to the baptism of the son of Jacob Simon and Margaretha Schantz. Johannes/Anton and Sarah Keerps Buck had a daughter Mary who married a Schantz. The year before, the same pastor recorded the birth of Johann/Anton and Sarah Charlotte's other son Johann Anton Hermann Bock, sharing a page with the Simon birth, page 359. The exact congregation of these reports is not clear from pastor Hirsch's combined records, but he attributes them to Fearing Township. In censuses Johann Anton Hermann was called Carmen, so he likely went by "Herman" rather than John or Anton.

There also was a son/brother Karl Johan born a year after Herman, but who may have died young as he does not show in the census. This John's obituary called him "the only son" of his father, even though the other two sons had existed, so that implies that the other two had died before 1934. Herman had, though, lived to marry. But it is unclear yet where or when he died.
