THE LANE FAMILY, consisted of four brothers, who came to Boone County in 1835. Their names were as follows: Addison E., Josiah C., Lewis and Levi; all now deceased except Levi, who resides in Lebanon.
They were the sons of William and Sarah Lane, who died in Tennessee.

Addison E. was born in Grange County, Tenn., in the year 1804; was married to Sarah Dennis about the year 1824; came to Putnam County, Indiana, 1825; bought land near Greencastle. Josiah C. was born February 11, 1806; was in 1828 married to Minerva Tomlinson, in Putnam County, Ind.

Lewis was born in Tennessee, 1810; came to Putnam County in 1827; married there to Emma Jackson. Levi, the only one now living, was born in Grange County, Tenn., July 9, 1815; he was married to Pheraby Hayes, September, 1841, in Lebanon, where he came a short time previous.

Mr. Levi Lane was, on his arrival, installed as deputy clerk under S. S. Brown, and has served as deputy and county clerk by election, thirty-nine years – so long and so well did he serve as to have no equal in that capacity. He served three terms as county commissioner to the entire satisfaction of all the people. The following are the names of his children: Henry S., Clara L., E. T., druggist in Lebanon; married to Ella Dougherty; J. B. Lane, married to Eliza Jenks; resides in Oxford, Ind.; Millrod W.; resides at home; Albert L., resides at home; married to Mollie Robinson; Eddie lives at home. Mr. and Mrs. Lane belong to the M. E. Church.

Addison E. and Josiah C. Lane engaged in the mercantile business in Lebanon for several years. Lewis engaged in farming in 1849. Addison E. and family moved to Texas, and both died there in 1873, in a few hours of each other. Lewis Lane died near Lebanon, in 1880; his wife died in 1877; but buried at the Brockway Cemetery. Josiah C. died in Lebanon, May 11, 1885; his wife died in 1883; all buried at the cemetery in Lebanon. This is a brief sketch of an early and interesting family, highly esteemed by all. Long may their memory live. The Lane family mostly were members of the M. E. Church.
