J. And Stephen Crane, of Elizabethtown, N. J Although the writer has given a vast amount of time, and a considerable sum from his means in prosecuting this work, still he is fully aware how difficult is the task of collecting material and compiling a work of this nature, and presenting it free from inaccuracies. Every effort has been made to avoid errors, and wherever different dates or conflicting statements have been received regarding the same event, which has frequently been the case, careful investigation has followed in order to determine if possible the correct statement to be used in the book. To the many friends who have in any way contributed to the encouragement of this work the writer would here express his profound gratitude. Among the names of those who have given special aid in its prosecution may be mentioned: Rev. Elias Nettleton Crane, Rev. Oliver Crane and James Eells Crane, all deceased; the latter died Nov. 19, 1893, in Phila delphia, Pa.; William M. Crane, Greenville, Mich. Stephen S. Crane, Maple Hill Farm, High Ridge, Conn.; Harrison Horton Crane, Middletown, N. Y. Augustus 8. Crane, Elizabeth, N. J. Miss A. J. Reed, Carmel, N. Y. Dorothy N. Law, Dixon, Ill.; Anna Russell Vance, Milwaukee, Wis.; Henry Harmon Noble, Albany, N. Y.; Horatio Crain, Key West, Fla.: and J. M. Crane, Kingwood, West Va. Records of several families needing further proof to define their position in the body of the book have been placed in the Addenda with the hope that some of the descendants may be able to find the connecting link. In some instances the peculiar spelling of names has been retained, believing members of the families would prefer to have them presented in that way.
