Jonathan left his home in New Providence, NJ in early spring 1796 for southwestern Ohio. He was part of a party organized by his brother-in-law Daniel Doty. Doty was the first pioneer to settle in the Middletown, Ohio area in 1790. Returning
to NJ, Doty married Jonathan's sister Elizabeth (Betsey) Crane. The Doty party also contained Jonathan's widowed mother Ruth Miller Crane, Jonathan's brothers Abner, Stephen, Moses and sister Ruth. They travelled overland to Pittsburgh and
then by flatboat from Pittsburgh to Cincinnati. Jonathan and his brothers not only helped Doty but settled on some of Doty's land in Warren County, Ohio.. Eventuallly they would purchase much more land of their own in that county. ®36

According to some of Jonathan Crane's letters to his family in New Jersey, he began to investigate land in the Wabash country of Indiana around 1822, making several trips there from Ohio. He sold the house in Red Lion in 1832. His name
appears on Indiana land purchases in Shawnee and Van Buren Townships in 1824 and Troy Township in 1827. He eventually settled at Osborn Prairie in Fountain County, IN, moving there with his daughter and son-in-law Huldah Crane Osborn and
Oliver Osborn. ®37
