[M] #47319 Gerald Homer Kraner ( John Harley KranerMaria Almira MacklinPhilip MacklinJacob MacklinPhilip MacklinJohn Peter "Peter" MechlingDiebold "Theobald" MechlingDiebold MechlingMartin Mechling )

Gerald was born 11 Jun 1903 in Adams Co., Indiana. He died 1981. He was buried in Gravel Hill Cemetery, Jackson Twp., Jay Co., Indiana.

Two more of Gerald's sons died Bef 26 Feb 2018, as noted in Keith Kraner's obituary. However, I'm not certain which ones as they are not named. I'm also uncertain which marriage produced Marilyn, Thomas and Frank. I've assigned them to Frances simply because of the large gap in years.
