The Crane family lives nearby in Caledonia, in between the Lantz and Dudeck families, and 2 doors down from the Buckle family.
John Crane is the head of the household, with his wife Katherine Crane. Leah Crane is the eldest daughter, followed by Bessie Crane, born 3 May 1888. Grace spends a lot of time with Bessie and at the Crane household. Bessie's younger brother is Harold Crane, also mentioned in Grace's diary.
Bessie is listed in the 1910 census as "Lizzie", which could be a transcriber error. Her given name is reported to the State of Michigan as "Bessie" in their birth records, viewable at Family History Library. In the 1940 census, Bessie is still unmarried and is living in Ann Arbor.

Alone all day but Buckles folks and Earl up in evening. Earl and I had sort of a scrap over Wallie when there was no reason for it at all.
The only other time Wallie has been mentioned in Grace's 1908 diary is on February 10, when she mentions receiving a letter from him. So, Wallie must not live in the Corunna area, and is likely to be around Grace's age...enough that he is considered a threat to Earl...
