Note: there is an Index of names at the bottom
The following genealogy report has been designed to allow for the descendants of Elizabeth Head to be included. The given name of Elizabeth Head Crain’s husband has not been determined, but given the numerous times the name, Lewis, has been repeated in his descendants, it probably was Lewis and I have chosen to use it here. Elizabeth Head Crain married Moses Winters after the death of her husband and they raised a large family, even with the hardships of the times. When I began my research on the Crain lineage, it did not take long to determine that there was a close connection between the two families.
It has been stated that Elizabeth Winters brought her daughters to the Bluffs on the flotilla that Col. John Donelson organized to bring the upper east Tennessee settlers by water to the Cumberland settlement. Moses Winters and the male members of the family are said to have come by land with Col. James Robertson.
Moses Winters and his son, Caleb, and stepson, Lewis Crain received 640 acres for helping defend the early settlements agains the Indians. They helped build and defend Heaton’s Station. Moses Winters and John Crain, oldest son of Elizabeth, served in Christian’s Campaign in the upper East Tennessee valley. This campaign was organized to put down the uprisings of the Indian tribes who were allied with the British. Two expeditions were made before the majority of the Indian Chiefs sued for peace. Only one, Dragging Canoe, remained to continue to harass the settlers. After the success of the Christian campaign, Col. John Montgomery asked for volunteers to go to the aid of George Rogers Clark, who had been waging war against the British and Indians in the upper Ohio valley since 1777. John Crain volunteered to go and was among the 150 who set out for the Ohio. Date of their arrival has not been found, but, from voucher records of George Rogers Clark, it would appear that they were in the vicinity by the latter part of 1779.
The first record of John Crain in Davidson County is in 1787 where he is listed in the tax list taken at the time; and the, 2 July 1787, County Court meeting where he is elected to serve as a Constaple. A subpoena was issued for him to appear and post security. It is entirely possible that John Crain had additional children from the ones listed in this report. The ones given in the report are the ones that can be documented.
Descendants of John Crain and Moses Winters, wishing to join the First Families of Tennessee or the Daughters of the American Revolution can qualify through their records. The descendants of Lewis Crain are eligible to join the First Families of Tennessee.

Page 164: Lewis Crane was of a very devout religious belief. Although a wealthy man and a farmer, he would never own slaves. The story is told of a visitor to Crane’s farm, “after having inspected the large farm, the cattle, hogs, sheep, growing corn, fruit trees, etc.,” he said, “Everything on that farm looked as if it was converted. Brother Crane had made a dedication of all he owned to his heavenly father.”

The Tennessee Conference of the Methodist Church was the largest Annual Conference in the United States at the time. Sumner County was in the Cumberland District. Pastors appointed Isaac Lindsay to the Goose Creek Circuit. John Crane, son of the early settler, Lewis Crane of Cages’s Bend, was appointed to the church at Duck River Circuit. He died there in February,1813, shortly after taking up his new duties. Young John Crane appeared, at the age of six years, “to be under the influence of religious impressions that he never altogether lost. John was 12 years old in 1799, and was an effective exhorter in the great revivals of the next few years. At age twenty, he was admitted on trial to the Methodist Church as a circuit rider, and spent his life in that capacity. In 1807, John Crain traveled six months on the Holston Cicuit, and the other six months on the French Broad River. In 1808, he was stationed in the state of Ohio, on the Deer Creek Circuit. At the Conference at Liberty Hill, for 1809, he was admitted into full connection and ordained deacon, and that year was stationed on a new circuit in Upper Louisiana, in the fork of the Mississippi where he had the honor of doing the work of an apostle in some sense, in planting the gospel, and raising a church in the wilderness. In 1810, he was ordained elder and stationed on Duck River circuit, where hundreds flocked to hear him preach. Near the end of January, he ceased from over fatigue and a very severe cold, which terminated in an inflammation of the lungs and about the 14th of February, John Crane died. About three hours before his death, his father, Lewis Crane, arrived. The Cages Bend congregation had begun in 1792 at William Dillard’s home, and a few years later moved into the log building known as Crane’s Meetinghouse. It took the name of Rehobeth Methodist Episcopal Church before 1828. Deeded land by Caleb Crane, son of Lewis Crane. Trustees: B. W. Ferrell, Fielding Grimsley, Ezekiel Crane, and William Crane.
