  Notes	James Krein received a liberal education and taught school in his native caton. At the age of twenty-one he emigrated to America, going first to Rochester,NY, and later to Nunda, where he taught the French language during the years 1848 and 1849 in exchange for his eduation in the English language. In 1850 he came to Dansville, and was employed as a clerk by the firm of Sikes and Wood, remaining with them in this capacity for some time. He then established himself in the grocery business, in which he continued successfully until 1876. During his career as a merchant he struggled manfully against many discouragements, the greatest of which was the loss of all he possessed by fire, his store being burned soon after its establishment. He again started in business, only to again suffer a second time from the same cause. Persisting, however, in his efforts, he ultimately became a prosperous merchant, well known and hightly respected. After his retirement from the grocery business in 1876 he engaged in the insurance business, which he conducted up to the time of his death.
