Commemorative Biographical Record of the County of Essex, J. H. Beers & Co., Toronto, 1905, p. 450-451:
Gore Lane, one of the thrifty young farmers of Gosfield township, County of Essex, is a descendant of one of the stanch old United Empire Loyalists.
     Ezekiel Lane, his grandfather, was a son of James Lane, was born in the State of New York, and resided there until 1812. The second war with Great Britian did not find favor in the Lane family, which felt bound in loyalty to the Mother Country, and leaving their possessions behind the for the sake of principle they migrated to Canada, crossing the frontier with a large company of English sympathizers, who settled in the vicinity of Little York. The Lane family soon moved westward and settled in Trafalgar township, County of Halton, Ont., and in 1841 they made still another westward move, settling in Malden township, County of Essex, in what was locally known as the Atkin settlement. The 150 acres which Grandfather Lane acquired was still wild bush land, and the new settlers met with many difficulties and hardships. He lived to see much of this farm cleared, and died there, still a loyal-hearted citizen. He was buried in Amherstburg cemetery. He married Mary Awry, and their children were as follows: Levi, a farmer of Malden, deceased; Denis, father of Gore Lane; Harriet, who married George Ryan, and resides on the old homestead in Trafalgar township; and James, who died unmarried.
     Denis Lane was born March 20, 1823, in Trafalgar township, and was a mere boy when the family came to Malden. After coming here he cultivated the home farm until he sold it, in 1882, and came to Gosfield township, buying the George Whittle farm. Here he carried on general farming until his death, Oct. 18, 1888. This property contains 113 acres and is situated on Lots 6 and 7, Concession 2.
     In Malden Denis Lane married a sister of Gore Atkin. She was born April 12, 1829, and died Nov. 18, 1902, the mother of the following children: Walter died at the age of nine years; Gore is mentioned below; Mary J. died Sept. 4, 1899, aged thirty-two years; E. A., deceased, married Philemon Peterson; Ida E. died in 1895, aged twenty-four years. Our subject is the only surviving member of the family.
     Gore Lane was born May 14, 1862, in Malden township, grew up on the home farm, and was educated in the local schools. He was about nineteen when the family moved to Gosfield. Since the property has been in his hands he has pushed improvements with method and energy, and has 113 acres under cultivation. In addition he has engaged very successfully in growing tobacco, and is one of the stockholders and directors of the Erie Tobacco Co., of Windsor.
     In 1888 Mr. Lane was united in marriage with Mary E., daughter of Alpheus and Nancy (Palmer) Scratch, the former of whom was born Aug. 25, 1826, and the latter June 14, 1826. Mrs. Lane is the youngest of their three children: Robert, and James and Mary E. Mr. and Mrs. Lane have seven children: Norman Dewitt, born June 22, 1889; Walter McMurry, March 18, 1892; Robert Salton, May 29, 1894; Lorne Gore, July 28, 1897; Wilfred, Feb. 10, 1899; and Violet Mary Louise and Victor Russell, twins, May 22, 1902.
     Mr. Gore Lane and his family belong to the Ruthven Methodist Church. In politics he is identified with the Reform party. Fraternally he is an odd fellow.
