Author: Luther A. Ingersoll (1908)

H. M. CRANE. Sawtelle, was born in Bridgeport, Fairfield county, Conn., July 11,
1861. His father, Charles S. Crane, a farmer, and his mother, Imogine J.
(Morris) Crane, are both natives of the "Nutmeg" state. In 1866 they came West
to Michigan and located at Marshall, in Calhoun county. Here Mr. Crane engaged
in the milling and grain business. In 1876 he removed to Caldwell county,
Missouri, and located near the town of Breckenridge, where he engaged in farming.

The subject of this sketch passed through the public schools of Marshall,
Michigan, and Breckenridge, Missouri. In 1886, he married Miss Flora, a daughter
of James J. Nellis, now a well-known citizen of Sawtelle. In 1905 they came to
California, and located at Sawtelle, where, for a time, he engaged in banking
and held the position of cashier of the Citizens' State Bank. Mr. Crane has made
liberal property investments in Sawtelle and, since retiring from the bank, is
engaged in the real estate and insurance business as a member of the firm of
Putnam & Crane. The family home, one of the most attractive in the city, is 2015
Oregon avenue. Mr. and Mrs. Crane have two daughters, Letha F. and Imogine.
