1. Amos LANE (1804-1851) b.Vermont, Spouse: Lucy SANDERS (1810-1895) b. Bakersfield, Vermont, Married 1830 at Chautaugua County, New York.

Found in 1850 census in Chautaugua County, New York. At that time he was 46 years old and Lucy was 40 years old. They had seven children. The eldest, who was 19 at that time, was named Augustus Cory LANE. The obituary story from the Oshkosh newspaper indicates they appeared in Oshkosh early in the 1850's. Amos came to Wisconsin in the early 1850's and worked in the lumber business for several years then became an active businessman in Oshkosh and owned property at 170 W. Algoma Street. A search for the early Lane family members, found an Amos LANE in Westchester County, New York. He appears on the 1790 census of this county in the city of Yorktown. Because of the dates it appears he possibly may be the father of Amos. There is some information the Lanes were from Long Island. There also is some information they were in Rensselear County, not far from Long Island. Also, an Aaron SANDERS was found in Westchester County, Which is the name of Lucy SANDERS father.
