HANE, druggist, Remus, was born in Williams Co., Ohio, Feb. 14, 1853. He is a son of Joseph and Elizabeth (Barron) Hane, natives of Pennsylvania. In 1855 the parents came to Lebanon, Clinton Co., Mich., where the son attended the common schools until he was 15 years old. He finished his education at the graded school at Maple Rapids, where he was a pupil three years. On completing his course of study he entered the drug store of Mr. McDonald at that place, where he was a clerk three years. In 1873 he returned to Lebanon and worked two years on a farm. He was married in Clinton County, March 26, 1875, to Flora, daughter of Albert and Lydia (Anersley) Cross, natives respectively of New York and Ohio, and of English and Welsh descent. Mrs. Hane was born in Madison Co., Ill., April 18, 1854. Her parents removed to Maple Rapids when she was eleven years old, where she was educated. Mr. Hane passed the year succeeding his marriage on a farm. The next year he went to Maple Rapids and operated a few months in the grocery business, going thence to Pompei, Gratiot Co., and there embarked in the drug trade. He continued to carry on his affairs there until the fall of 1880, when he went to Fowler, Clinton Co., and a short time after founded his present business at Remus. His stock includes all druggists' goods and is valued at $1,500, with annual sales aggregating $2,000, and business interests constantly increasing.
