Notes

Jasper Crane sold the house and land in East Haven September 7, 1652

and moved to Branford where he joined with about 20 families from

Southhampton, Long Island under the leadership of Rev. Pierson, and a

group of families from Wethersfield led by Samuel Swaine. Both groups

had come to the area to escape the more liberal religious policy of

the Connecticut Colony. When New Haven was united with Connecticut in

1662 many leaders were dismayed that their pure government by the

church would be corrupted. Through the leadership of Robert Treat and

some Elizabethtown settlers, many who had come from Southampton, Long

Island, a site was found for a new settlement. In the Spring of 1666,

41 families, led by Robert Treat took up the area now known as Newark.

Included in this group was Azariah Crane, son of Jasper. Jasper Crane,

Rev. Pierson, Samuel Swaine and 20 more families followed the next

Spring. A total of 64 families in all. The settlement was first named

New Milford, but soon changed to Newark in honor of Rev. Pierson's

former home in England. From 'THE GENEALOGY OF THE CRANE FAMILY' by

Ellery Bicknell Crane, 1900 JASPER CRANE OF NEW HAVEN, CONN., ALSO,

NEWARK, NJ. He was a surveyor and merchant, as well as a magistrate,

and with Mr. Myles laid out the most of the New Haven town plot,

located grants, established division lines, and settled disputed

titles. It is said that he was steward of Rev. John Davenport's

property in 1639. In March, 1641, he received a grant of 100 acres of

land in the East Meadow. He was one of the New Haven Company concerned

in the settlement on the Delaware River in 1642, who were so roughly

handled by the Dutch. In 1643 his estate was voted at L480, with three

persons in his family, -- self, wife and son John. In 1644-45 he

received a grant of 16 acres of upland, situated in East Haven, upon

which he built a house, in which his son Joseph was born. While

residing at this place he was in trade as a merchant, but not being

satisfied with the location he sold this place Sept. 7, 1652, and

became one of the first planters of Branford, Conn., a new settlement

then just being instituted by families from Wethersfield, Conn., under

the leadership of Mr. Swayne, and a few from Southampton, L.I.
