D. K. Crane, baker and confectioner, born in Seneca County, New York, in the year 1839, son of Edward and Evaline Crane, natives of New York.
Immigrated to Ohio about the year 1842, with a family of four children, and had five born to them after coming to Ohio.
The subject of our remarks was married in 1861, to Miss Rena, daughter of Thomas D. and Nancy Gilman, of Waynesville, Warren County, Ohio.
They have been blessed with a family of four children, two of them, Deloss and Cora, dead, and Clyde and Guy, living.
He was among the men in time of the war, who drove Morgan, the guerrilla chief, from the soil of Ohio. Enough to show he was a lover of the old stars and stripes, and ready to take up arms for their defence.
He is a member of Enterprise Lodge No. 280, Odd-fellows, of Westborough, Clinton County, Ohio, and also a member of the Methodist Church. He is now engaged in the baking and confectionery business at the " Springs," and is one of the leading men of the place, and has his full share of custom among the people of this county.
