In 1856 they migrated to Utah, crossing the plains with the Israel Evans handcart company. In 1859 the family home was established at Manti in Sanpete county and in 1864 Mr. Crane was called to settle the town of Monroe in Sevier county. The following year, or 1865, they located at Salina, but the Indians were still very hostile, rendering life and property unsafe, and the Crane family returned to Manti, where they remained until 1871, when the family home was again established at Salina. A volume might well be written concerning the services rendered to the state and to the church by Elias Crane, whose labors were a most effective factor in the development and upbuilding of Utah along the lines of material and moral progress. In 1870 Mr. Crane planted wheat which yielded him a harvest of fifteen thousand bushels, enabling him to do great service to the people whose crops had been destroyed by the grasshoppers. At the time of his death, which occurred in 1905, he was filling the office of high priest. Joseph C. Crane attended the schools of Manti and of Salina and assisted his father in the work of the home farm during the period of his boyhood and youth. Later he operated a stage and freight line to Nevada and following the building of the railroads he settled down as a farmer and stock raiser. He now owns two hundred and fifty acres of land, which is under a high state of cultivation, south of Salina, in the Vermilion Canal district. He is also one of the foremost stock raisers of his section of the state and has been an extensive breeder of cattle, having five hundred head of Herefords and many head of shorthorn Durhams upon his place. He has also been the president of the Vermilion Extension Canal Company and has been a liberal investor in the stock of the Salina Hospital, of the First State Bank, of the Intermountain Life Insurance Company, the Utah Implement Company, the Lynn Big Six Mining Company of Utah and many other important business projects and enterprises of the state. On November 23, 1883, Mr. Crane was married to Miss Elizabeth Roxanna Williams, a daughter of George S. Williams, a well known farmer of Sevier county. Their children are: Sarah Elizabeth, the wife of Roy Colby, of Salina; Mary Jane, the wife of Hick Oakland, of Salina; Christina, the wife of H. W. Bench; Rosabelle, the wife of Daniel Freece; Orlando, Lincoln and Roland, who are associated with their father in his large stock raising and farming interests. These three young men bear splendid reputations in social and financial circles and are accounted as among the best of the young citizenship of Sevier county. They will ever fully maintain the high reputation that has been associated with the name of Crane from the time when the intrepid Englishman dragged a handcart across the plains in 1856. Never a politician in the general acceptance of that term, Mr. Crane has served his fellow citizens as a member of the city council for one term but has declined other public offices. His public spirit, however, has been manifest in his investments and in many other ways, whereby he has promoted the welfare and progress of county and state. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SOURCE: 1.
