    The History of Warren County, Ohio (Chicago: W. H. Beers & Co., 1882), p897 

    • Amos Crane, farmer; P.O., Pekin; born on the old farm of Judge Crane, Oct. 12, 1821, is a son of Judge Daniel and Elizabeth Crane, whose history is given in sketch of Caleb Crane. Amos was married May 30, 1849, to Emily H., a daughter of Joseph and Amy (Hormel) Evans, he a native of New Jersey and she of Warren County,. Her grandparents were Joseph and Elizabeth Evans, natives of New Jersey but who became early settlers of Warren County, where they lived and died. He was twice married and had five children by each wife, all now deceased but Job and Aaron. Her maternal grandparents were John and Rachel Hormel, who were also very early settlers of Warren County,; the great-grandfather, John Hormel, also came to this county and died; and was buried here. Joseph and Amy Evans had five children, three sons and two daughters--George W. H.; Elizabeth, now Mrs. John Bean; Japhet; Elias; and Emily H., who was born in this county, Nov. 2, 1830. Mrs. Evans died April 29, 1835, aged 39 years; Mr. Evans died Sept. 2, 1851, aged 54 years. Mr. Crane and wife have had three children--James Elias, born Feb. 27, 1850, died Aug. 11, 1850; Ella Jane, Oct. 20, 1852, died Dec. 30, 1877; and Ada A., born Jan 14, 1856. Mr Crane is a carpenter and farmer; the former trade he followed about ten years; the balance of his life has been devoted to farming, and all within this county and all on the same section of land where he was born and raised. He purchased the place where he now lives in 1847, of Margaret Hormel and heirs, and moved on to the same in the spring of 1850, where he has since resided. Mr. Crane is a fair representative of his ancestors in character and integrity; although he quietly follows his occupation of farming from choice, avoiding all notoriety by holding public offices, yet is one of Clear Creek Township's best and most worthy citizens.
