"Joseph, Jr., son of Joseph and Mary Crane, was born in 1757, and married Deliverance MIlls. They lived in Milton, Mass., after their marriage until their first child, Jesse, was several months of age, when they removed to Washington, N.H., which must have been late in 1782 or early 1783. They settled on the south-east slope of Lovell's mountain, near the spot where John Vose settled. After a few years he removed his family to a house which stood on the mountain road to Washington Center, about a half mile east of the Vose place, and short distance east of the house which was long the home of Joel Severance. Here they lived until the infirmities of age compelled them to give up their home and make their home with their children. Joseph Crane died in Washington, June 30, 1841. His wife died Aug. 17, 1845. Some years prior to her death she sustained a severe fracture to her thigh, which made her a cripple the remainder of her life."
