General Notes: Husband - John T. Cranmer

---

He was reared in Clay Township, Butler County, PA, and gained his school-book knowledge in the early schools, to which he walked a long distance. Later he learned the carpenter's trade and for thirty-five years was a contractor, work­ing through three counties. He built twenty-three of the big barns which stood on the farms of old residents and often also built their houses and other structures. In 1890 he turned his atten­tion to milling and purchased a mill in Butler Township, from John Ralston, who had built it. He thoroughly overhauled the mill and in­stalled modern ma­chinery. His power was supplied by a 60-horsepower gas engine and he ground buck­wheat, wheat and other grains and sold flour and feed, doing a very large business.
