Col Crane, a distant relative, was a thrid generation American who took part in the Boston Tea Party. The story that has been told down through the generations by my family was that he was one of those who dressed up as a Mohawk Indian. He was knocked unconscience while fleeing from the British and dragged to a nearby woodworking shop and hidden in a corner being covered with shavings. Those fleeing left him behind.
