Per BIOGRAPHICAL HISTORY OF VAN WERT COUNTY (Ohio) "John Cramer was eighteen years of age when he accompanied his parents to Seneca County, Ohio, and had then finished his education. Until twenty-one years of age he remained on the home farm, and then engaged as a laborer in a saw-mill in Seneca County for two years, and then, in 1847, he married and bought eighty acres of land, on which he at once located and cultivated until 1864, when he came to Van Wert and bought 120 acres in Pleasant township, where he now resides and still owns 75 acres of finely improved land. The family all worship in the Methodist Episcopal faith, and in politics Mr. Cramer is a prohibitionist; he is a member of the grange No. 82, of which he was the treasurer for 14 years."
FindAGrave lists his date of birth as 9 Oct 1822, and date of death as 10 Jan 1912. A photo of an engraved double tombstone, with a second wife, Sarah J. Cramer, shows the dates as 6 Oct 1833 through 11 Jan 1912. Dean Cramer has an earlier date of death, 11 November 1905.

8. | Johannes "John" Cramer, Sr. was born on 25 Aug 1791 in York County, Pennsylvania; was christened on 10 Sep 1791 in Saint Jacobs (Stone) Union Church, Codorus Township, York County, Pennsylvania (son of Johann Helfer Cramer and Henrietta Sophia Neudig); died on 29 Jun 1856 in Fostoria, Seneca County, Ohio; was buried in Cramer Cemetery, Fostoria, Seneca County, Ohio. Notes:
Clarence E. Cramer writes that his baptismal sponsors were his maternal grandparents, Johann and Elisabetha Neidig. He was named in honor of Johann(es) Neudig. He indicated that after his marriage, he and Catharina lived near the Stone Church. He moved to Fostoria, Ohio sometime between 1837 and 1840...(with) printed records for each of these dates, as well as Family tales. (P. 57).
Edith Beard Cannon, in "Genealogical Reports for The Historical Society of York County, Vol. XXIX, p. 52, Evidence of the Cramer Families of York before the year 1850 REVISED" published 1843, cited the following deed:
(3A, 29) December 26, 1814. Johannes Cramer of Shrewsbury Township, yeoman; to John KOLLER: for $1.50: lot 18 in Shrewsbury town.
According to the "Biographical History of Van Wert County (Ohio), Volume II" John Cramer Sr came to Ohio in 1840 and settled on a farm in Seneca County, where he died June 29, 1856, his wife having departed September 16, 1854. They were both members of the German Lutheran Church, and in politics, Mr. Cramer was a democrat. He had served in the war of 1812 as a captain, and was an honored man in his community, where he left a fair fortune. (p. 154) In the book "Seneca County, Biographical Sketches" it says that John and Catherine (Slote) Cramer settled in Loudon Township, Seneca County, in 1838, and purchased 160 acres of land, most of which they cleared and improved and where they lived; here the father died in 1855, in his sixty fifth year; and the mother in 1854, in her sixty second year. (Loudon Township, p 893)
According to Dean Cramer, John donated some of his own land for the Cramer Cemetery in Fostoria, Ohio.
