John E. Blox (June 17, 1810 – April 27, 1860) was an American Catholic priest and member of the Society of Jesus. Blox was born on June 17, 1810, in Belgium and immigrated to the United States at the age of twenty-two. Upon his arrival, he entered the Jesuit novitiate at White Marsh Manor in Maryland on November 5, 1832. Following his probationary period, he was sent to study at Georgetown College. On July 4, 1843, he was ordained a priest by Archbishop Samuel Eccleston of Baltimore at Holy Trinity Church in the Georgetown section of Washington, D.C. He was made the pastor of St. Francis Xavier Church in Baltimore in 1845, where he remained until 1846. Following his pastorate, Blox was appointed the superior of St. Xavier College in Cincinnati (now Xavier University), a position he held for one year.
