    Notes 
    • A biography of his son, posted online at the Ancestry.com Message Board for Huntington County, Indiana, notes that

      "Joseph L. Cramer, also a native of York county, Pennsylvania, and was crippled in 1861, being unable to perform manual labor. He was one of nine children, six sons and three daughters. He learned the trade of a shoemaker, and in the fall of 1856 came to Huntington county, Indiana, settling on a farm near the village of Pleasant Plain, and there plied his craft. It was not long before he gained an enviable reputation for his skill and the thoroughness of his work, and the entire neighborhood came to him when they wanted shoes made. He would take the leather and fashion a boot or shoe from the very first step to its completion, ready for the wearer. He loved children, and it did not take the little folks long to find out that he was their friend. His shop was their headquarters and he never failed to show his appreciation of them and a deep interest in all the little affairs which make up the world of childhood, and he was a prime favorite among all the children."
