!NOTES:Stephen is a proven son of Osborne Lane as named in Osborne's 1840 estate records. Sellers also listed him as a son, though he incorrectly stated that Stephen moved to Georgia. It is possible he was in Georgia briefly, but we have no record of that.;


!NOTES:Stephen is the only child of Osborne Lane known to have a middle initial. I don't know what the "C" stands for. "Crawford" comes to mind, for his mother, but no records have been found, so far, to prove what his middle name was.;


!NOTES:Special thanks to David Rankin for sharing information on this family in Texas. He had found widow Elizabeth there, and he and I were able to prove (more or less) that widow Elizabeth Lane of Fayette Co., TX was the widow of Stephen C. Lane.;

...
Osborne Lane married a Miss Crawford, a sister of old James Crawford, of Spring Branch-I suppose, older than her brother. The Crawfords were quite respectable in that day and have continued to be so down to the present time. The fruits of the marriage, as known, were eight sons, John, Thomas, Alexander, James, Robert, David, Stephen and William, and two daughters, Kesiah and Elizabeth.
...
Of the three other sons of old Osborne Lane, Robert moved to Barnwell ; David moved to Union, and Stephen went to Georgia in the long past, and no tidings from them. ;

!NOTES:No clues as to Elizabeth's maiden name.;


!NOTES:Special thanks to David Rankin for sharing information on this family in Texas. He had found widow Elizabeth there, and he and I were able to prove (more or less) that widow Elizabeth Lane of Fayette Co., TX was the widow of Stephen C. Lane.
- The major proof is circumstantial, but very strong:
1. Elizabeth's children were born in SC and AL which matches Stephen's known residences at the times of their births.
2. George married in Montgomery and was living in Fayette in 1850 two houses from his mother.
3. George named a son "Stephen".
4. After George's death, his wife and family returned to Montgomery Co., AL where the Lanes had been before.
5. Martha Lane m. Anthony Pouncey in 1830 Montgomery Co., AL. In 1850 Frank Pouncy, 10, was with Elizabeth in TX. Anthony and Martha no where to be found. Probably dead.
* All of the above makes it pretty clear that widow Elizabeth was indeed Stephen's wife, but as far as I know no primary source document has been found that proves it 100%.;
