Surname -- KRANS -- (2 Generations) New York to Canada

The Krans line is not a direct line in my tree and I am not related to any of them.  But because I had the resources, the time and a friend who has this line, I spent almost an entire summer working on this family.  I have 79 Krans and the lineage is for five generations.
