Scarsdale, NY "A number of Scarsdale thoroughfares are associated with the Crane family and were named by Col. Alexander B. Crane and his son Alexander M. Crane. They include Axtell Drive for Colonel Crane's great-grandmother, Joanna Axtell; Crane Road which bounds the Crane Estate on the south; Taunton Road for Taunton, Mass.; The Weir for Weir Junction; Tisdale Road for Col. Crane's mother, Emma Tisdale Porter...." (from Scarsdale by Henry Hansen. Harper&Row 1954 p. 104)

"Alexander Baxter Crane was a New York lawyer who picked Scarsdale as his permanent home after the Civil War in which he had served with distinction. His great-grandfather was a sea captain, and his grandfather served in the Revolution. Alexander, born April 23, 1837, in Berkeley, Massachusetts, attended Amherst. ... Crane was married to Laura C. Mitchell. He bought the Holmhurst Estate in Scarsdale." (ibid p. 72)

Scarsdale is 20 miles north of NY City. Axtell Drive is in the Crane-Berkely section of town.
