(VIII) Marcus Spencer Crane, son of Asher Baldwin Crane, was born in the old Crane homestead at "Westville," Caldwell, New Jer- sey, April 21, 1853. His early education was gained in the nearby district school, supple- mented by two winter terms in the private school of Arthur B. Noll at Caldwell, and the private school of E. O. Stratton, subsequently taking a winter course in the Newark Acad- emy up to nineteen years of age. At an early age he assisted his father in the duties of the farm and worked in his father's mill. Con- tinuing with his father in conducting the affairs of the farm, he received on the decease of his father, by his will, one hundred and twenty-five acres of the homestead property and one-half interest in the saw mill. The other half interest in the mill, left to the other son and heir, Cyrus B. Crane, was purchased by Marcus Spencer at the time he bought the entire rights in the mill plant, March 1, 1894. He then took possession and started to im- prove the plant, succeeding the old firm of Nathaniel N. Crane & Company who so long operated the privilege. Mr. Crane has since installed a steam boiler and twenty-two horse power engine ; he operates a grist mill in addi- tion to his saw, planing and turning mill, sup- plying finished timber of all kinds, wagon stock and general mill work. He erected his present homestead in 1900 on the site of the old Crane house. His barns, spacious and up-to-date in all their appointments, stand west of the resi- dence, and are capable of storing one hundred tons of hay. He also erected an improved milk house. He has devoted much time to the study of entomology, which has greatly aided him in exterminating destructive insects in his locality. His collection is one of the best pri- vate collections in the state.
Marcus Spencer Crane was married at Plain- field, New Jersey, October 23, 1901, by Rev. Dr. William Richards, to Mabel, born March 4, 1870, daughter of David Oliver and Nancy M. (Winans) Bonnell, of Plainfield, New Jer- sey. David O. Bonnell was a provision dealer and farmer. Children : Herbert Bonnell, born January 30, 1903, and Elsie Joanna, June 26, 1905.
Mr. and Mrs. Crane are members of the First Presbyterian Church at Caldwell, Mr. Crane serving the society as deacon. He is active in the cause of temperance, and a former member of the Temple of Honor. In politics he is to be found on the side that is best to the community at large, and while he is inde- pendent, strongly favors the Republican party. He served as town committeeman three years, and later on the board of health for the bor- ough. He is a member of Caldwell Grange, No. 107, Patrons of Husbandry, and served that body as its treasurer a number of years.

(II) Joseph, son of Josiah and Elizabeth (Crane) Ward, was born in the old Ward family homestead at West Bloomfield, Feb- ruary 24, 1813, and died there April 29, 1880. After receiving his early education in the Bloomfield district school, he attended, until seventeen years old, the private school kept by Isaac Wheeler. He was industrious in his studies, and was regarded as an excellent mathematician and grammarian, and was high- ly gifted also as a penman, specimens of his writing being still preserved by his family, showing his care, skill and capability in that direction. Until he was of age he remained at home helping his father on the farm, and after his father's death he continued to manage it with the assistance of his mother, who is said to have been a most energetic and capable woman, and under their joint labours the plantation produced a handsome yearly income. His father left the farm to the eldest son Jo- seph, who voluntarily bestowed upon his brothers and sister an equal share in money and retained the homestead property. He was progressive in every sense of the term. Later on he sold some of his lands, which amounted to over one hundred acres, to advantage. He built houses on Ridgewood avenue, Montclair, now known as Glenridge, which he disposed of at a very good profit. He was regarded as "a man among men." "He was an upright, hon- orable type of man, kept in touch by constant reading with the affairs of the world at large, and being of a quiet nature he would never accept any public office in the gift of his fellow citizens, although he always strongly upheld the principles of the Republican party." He was a member of the First Presbyterian Church of Montclair, and, possessing a good tenor voice, sang in the choir there for many years. He married (first) Marinda, born in 1816, died October 31, 1842, daughter of Caleb and Mary (Dodd) Baldwin.

(III) Frank Condit, son of Joseph and Sarah C. (Condit) Ward, was born in the old Ward homestead, on Orange Road, Montclair, being the fourth generation to be born in the house, February 5, 1858. For his early edu- cation he attended the public schools of Mont- clair, where he received a good literary edu- cation, and graduated from the high school. He then took up a practical commercial course at the New Jersey Commercial College at Newark, and after finishing it entered the Riverview Military Academy at Poughkeepsie, where he took up a classical course, supple- mented by another business course. Mr. Ward next accepted a position as clerk and book- keeper in the brokerage building of Hills Brothers, in New York City, where he remain- ed for one year, and then resigned in order to accept a similar position with the firm of Lyon Brothers, of New York. Soon after this he began a successful real estate and brokerage business in East Orange and Brick Church, New Jersey, in partnership with Charles W. L. Roche, the firm name being Ward & Roche, and for eleven years the partners enjoyed not only the most successful but also the largest real estate business in that section. The part- nership was then dissolved, and for the follow- ing two years Mr. Ward establishing himself in the "Studio Building," of which he was part owner, as an operator buying and selling real estate. After this he took up his quarters in Berkley Hall, a building erected by Mr. Ward, and remained in business here for six years longer. In 1905 the building of the pres- ent storage warehouse was begun under his supervision, and upon its completion in the

spring of 1909 the Orange Storage Warehouse Company was incorporated in April, 1909, with Mr. Ward as president, Judge Thomas A. Davis as vice-president, and Clinton M. Field as secretary and treasurer. Among the many valuable properties which Mr. Ward has been instrumental in developing is the pres- ent Washington Terrace locality. He has also opened up a valuable property from the old Ward estate, which belonged to his ancestors; erecting many of the residences and greatly improving the southern location of Montclair. He is considered an expert on land values and is constantly engaged as an appraiser in every part of the country. He is also an expert breeder of fine cattle and horses and has met with very marked success. He has imported as many as five hundred of cattle at one time, much of his stock coming from the Channel Islands and his stock has been sold, and is well known in almost every state in the Union. He is a member of the First Presbyterian Church of Montclair, and of the New Jersey Driving Association.

HOLMES This name probably came from the Norse "holmr," meaning small islet, or the English from of the same word, "holm," being low flat ground near or in water; the present form evidently arose from using the name in the possessive case, and it has been found written in many different ways, prominent among them being Holm, Hoomes, Wholms, Whooms, Whomes, Holms and Holmes. David Holmes, of Dorchester, Massachusetts, who died in 1666, mentions his wife Jane, daughter Mar- garet, and speaks of two young sons, but does not give their Christian names. As there is found no mention of John and James Holmes, who were among the early settlers of Wood- stock, Connecticut, until they appear in that town, it is highly probable that they were the sons above referred to in the will of David Holmes, especially as their ages would seem to have corresponded with those of the same young men. The most prominent member of this family in America is the well-beloved poet, Oliver Wendell Holmes.
(I) John Holmes, born about 1664, prob- ably in Dorchester, Massachusetts, and thought to have been son of David Holmes, was one of the original proprietors of the town of Woodstock, Connecticut, and died there June 20, 1713. He held many town offices, and was considered a man of ability; for his public services several grants of land were made to him, so that in this and other ways he became possessed of considerable property. He mar- ried, April 9, 1690, Hannah, daughter of Isaac Newell, of Roxbury, granddaughter of Abra- ham Newell, who came to American from Ips- wich, England, in the ship "Francis," in 1634. She was baptized February 19, 1671, and died May 9, 1743; her children were: Hannah, given in records as born March 26, 1690, which is a mistake, or the date of marriage is given wrong ; David, born 1692, became great-grand- father of the poet, Oliver Wendell Holmes; John, born June 28, 1695; Ebenezer; Mar- garet, March 16, 1698; Elizabeth, December 18, 1702 ; Experience, June 8, 1706.
(II) Ebenezer, third son of John and Han- nah (Newell) Holmes, was born February 13, 1697, at Woodstock, Connecticut, and died probably between 1720 and 1724. He married Joanna Ainsworth, and record is found of one child, Ebenezer; his widow is probably the

(VI) Jeremiah Stone, oldest son of Jere- miah and Tryphena (Shattuck) Holmes, was born January 24, 1805, at Woodstock, Con- necticut, where he learned the trade of stone mason and worked at same for many years. In middle life he removed to Charlton, Massa- chusetts, where he acquired a large amount
of land and carried on farming with good suc- cess. He was a man of high character, and earned the respect and regard of the commu- nity ; he died in Charlton, June 10, 1889. He was a member of the Unitarian Church. He married (first) Harriet, daughter of Johnson and Sibil ( Wheeler) Henry, born March 26, 1809, died June 21, 1843; (second) Sarah Congden. His children were: I. Clementine Williams, born October II, 1833, at Grafton, Massachusetts, died July II, 1852, in Rutland, Massachusetts. 2.

He assisted his uncle on his farm at Rutland until he reached his majority, and then found employment in the nearby town of Worcester, where he remained until 1862, in September of which year he en- listed in the Fifty-first Massachusetts Volun- teer Infantry, and served nine months, bearing himself creditably. Among the engagements in which he took part were the battles of New- berne, Whitehall, Goldsboro and Kinston, N. C. At the time of the battle of Gettysburg the regiment volunteered its services to reinforce General Meade's army, although their time had expired.
At the close of the war Mr. Holmes removed to Plainfield, New Jersey, where for twenty- five years he acted as agent for the Adams Ex- press Company. From 1888 until 1907 he was very successfully engaged in the coal business, after which he retired from active business. He is an enterprising citizen, and much re- spected for his sterling qualities and public spirit, as well as his service in behalf of his country. Mr. Holmes was for many years a member of Winfield Scott Post, Grand Army of the Republic, of Plainfield, and belongs to the Crescent Avenue Presbyterian Church. He married, June 9, 1870, Rebecca Morton, daugh- ter of Joseph Lockwood and Amelia (Morton) Kellogg; they have no children, but adopted a daughter, Louise. (See Kellogg IX)

Most historical researchers
KELLOGG agree that this name is of Scotch origin, and there is a tradition that one of the earliest families came from Scotland with James VI., who became James I. of England. Some of the name were found early in Wales, where it is claimed by some the name originated. The first record found of the name in tax lists is in 1525, when Nicholas Kellogg was taxed; he was born in 1488. The first of the name of whose emigra- tion to America there is knowledge is Na- thaniel, who came about 1637 and was at Windsor, Connecticut, in the early part of 1640.
(I) Phillippe, probably son of Thomas and grandson of Nicholas Kellogg, is the first Eng- lish ancestor to whom the family here de- scribed can positively trace their ancestry. The first record of his name is September 15, 1583, when his son Thomas was baptized at Bocking, in Essex; two years later he was living at Great Leighs. His children were: Thomas; Annis; Robert, baptized November 14, 1585; Mary, baptized February 16, 1588; Prudence, March 20, 1592; Martyn or Martin ; Nathaniel, died in New England ; John ; Jane ; and Rachel.
(II) Martin, third son of Phillippe Kellogg, was baptized November 23, 1595, at Great Leighs, England; he was a weaver of cloth, and lived at Braintree and Great Leighs. He married, October 22, 1621, at Stortford, coun- ty Hertford, Prudence, daughter of John Bird, who was dead May 20, 1671, at the time his will was dated. His will was proved at Brain- tree, England, September 20, 1671. His chil- dren were: John; Nathaniel, baptized March 12, 1624; Joseph, baptized April 1, 1626, re- moved to New England : Sarah; Daniel ; Sam- uel, removed to New England ; and Martin.
(III) Daniel, fourth son of Martin and Prudence (Bird) Kellogg, was baptized Feb- 1uary 6, 1630, at Great Leighs, England, and was an early settler of Norwalk, Connecticut, which town was incorporated in 1651 ; he at- tended the town meeting of March 20, 1656. He was remarkable for his great size, being considerably over seven feet tall and broad and strong accordingly. A story is related of his summary treatment of two Indians who were making themselves objectionable to some of the women of the neighborhood, who were much surprised by his taking one in each hand. In 1670 he was selectman, and in the same year and seven times thereafter he was a repre- sentative. His inventory of estate, dated De- cember, 1688, showed him to be possessed of
considerable land ; same was filed by his widow in March, 1689. He married Bridget, daugh- ter of John and Alice Bouton, who died in 1689 ; children : Sarah, born February, 1659; Mary, February, 1661 ; Rachel, February, 1663; Elizabeth, August 1666; Daniel, May 7, 1671 ; Samuel; Lydia, April, 1676; Benjamin and Joseph, twins, March, 1678.
(IV) Samuel, second son of Daniel and Bridget (Bouton) Kellogg, was born February 19, 1673, at Norwalk, Connecticut, and died October 13, 1757. He was prominent in civil and church affairs of Norwalk, and his name is found on lists of church committees. In 1703 he was a collector, in 1705 a selectman, and in 1714 a member of the Connecticut as- sembly. He married (first) September 6, 1704, Sarah, daughter of John and Hannah (Clark) Platt, born May 21, 1678, in Norwalk, died November 10, 1750, who was the mother of his eight children. He married (second) in Wilton, March 9, 1755, Sarah (Lockwood) Hickok, widow of Benjamin Hickok, daugh- ter of Jonathan and Mary ( Ferris ) Lockwood, born in 1678, who had previously been mar- ried twice, first to Nathaniel Selleck, who died August 14, 1712, and second to Benjamin Hickok ; at the time of her third marriage she was in her seventy-third year and Mr. Kellogg in his eight-third year. She died in 1765. Samuel Kellogg's children were: Sarah, born September 26, 1705; Samuel, December 23, 1706; Mary, January 29, 1708; Martin; Abi- gail, January 19, 1713; Lydia, October 30, 1715; Gideon, December 5, 1717; and Epene- tus, June 26, 1719.
