Daniel Dod died between sowing time 1665 and the harvest of 1666 as an
appraisal of his personal property included "the wheat on the ground".
The children, left orphans at his death, all removed to Newark, New
Jersey, except Anna and Stephen, who lived in Guilford. Richard Lawrence
and Lawrence Ward were appointed guardians. ** Lieut. Swayne **, John
Wilford, and John Ward appraised the estate which amounted to £146 17s
4d. At that time this was an amount sufficient to give the children a
fair start in life in a country where land could be bought for very
little money.
Jasper Crane sold the house and land in East Haven September 7, 1652 and
moved to Branford where he joined with about 20 families from
Southhampton, Long Island under the leadership of Rev. Pierson, and a
group of families from Wethersfield led by ** Samuel Swaine **. Both
groups had come to the area to escape the more liberal religious policy
of the Connecticut Colony. When New Haven was united with Connecticut in
1662 many leaders were dismayed that their pure government by the church
would be corrupted. Through the leadership of Robert Treat and some
Elizabethtown settlers, many who had come from Southampton, Long Island,
a site was found for a new settlement. In the Spring of 1666, 41
families, led by Robert Treat took up the area now known as Newark.
Included in this group was Azariah Crane, son of Jasper. Jasper Crane,
Rev. Pierson, ** Samuel Swaine ** and 20 more families followed the next
Spring. A total of 64 families in all. The settlement was first named New
Milford, but soon changed to Newark in honor of Rev. Pierson's former
home in England.
From "THE GENEALOGY OF THE CRANE FAMILY"

JASPER CRANE OF NEW HAVEN, CONN., ALSO, NEWARK, NJ
He was a surveyor and merchant, as well as a magistrate, and with Mr.
Myles laid out the most of the New Haven town plot, located grants,
established division lines, and settled disputed titles. It is said that
he was steward of Rev. John Davenport's property in 1639. In March, 1641,
he received a grant of 100 acres of land in the East Meadow. He was one
of the New Haven Company concerned in the settlement on the Delaware
River in 1642, who were so roughly handled by the Dutch. In 1643 his
estate was voted at L480, with three persons in his family, -- self, wife
and son John. In 1644-45 he received a grant of 16 acres of upland,
situated in East Haven, upon which he built a house, in which his son
Joseph was born. While residing at this place he was in trade as a
merchant, but not being satisfied with the location he sold this place
Sept. 7, 1652, and became one of the first planters of Branford, Conn., a
new settlement then just being instituted by families from Wethersfield,
Conn., under the leadership of ** Mr. Swayne **, and a few from
Southampton, L.I.
