Notes


JOSEPH CRANE, the son of Jonathan, the son of Benjamin Crane. Born in Windham, Conn. When the new meeting-house was built there, he, with a few other young men, in the year 1713, built a pew for their own use. Just the date he left Windham does not appear, but he evidently while a young man followed his uncles Joseph and Elijah Crane to Fairfield, where he married about the year 1719 Mary, daughter of Samuel Couch of that place. She was born Dec. 15, 1695. Mr. Couch gave his son-in-law property in Fairfield, deed dated Sept. 8, 1725. … he appears to have removed to Norwalk, and from there to the place now known as South East Putnam County, N.Y., locating in the town last mentioned about the year 1730 on the north side of “Joe’s Hill,” about one mileand a half east of Sodom Corners, where on the east branch of the Croton River he built “Crane’s Mill.” The site of this mill is now covered by the Sodom Reservoir. Miss Kate Crane, a descendant of this line, writes that recently an old English clock has been found in South East with the following mark inside the case: “Joseph Crane, 1620.” This clock may have been a wedding present… Mrs. Crane died January 9, 1766, age 70 years. He died August 20, 1781. The following dates and births and deaths were copied from the family Bible by Mr. Carso Crane, and by him presented to the compiler. Children: Zebulan, b. Jan. 25, 1721; d. Jan. 24, 1789. Joseph, b. Oct. 2, 1722; d. Oct. 14, 1800. Mary, b. May 30, 1726; d. March 17, 1805. Thaddeus, b. March 27, 1728; d. Sept. 1, 1803. Abigail, b. April 3, 1730; d. Sept. 30, 1806. Anna, b. April 12, 1732; d. March 28, 1805. Stephen, b. May 19, 1734; d. May 10, 1814. Adah, b. Oct. 25, 1736; d. April 18, 1810. This is an account of Capt. Joseph Crane's father and mother. Capt. Joseph Crane is their son, born October 2, 1722.
