James DeLane or Nelson Adelbret DeLane?

The back of this photo says "Adelbert's brother" and beneath that it said, "Grandpa" in what appeared to be Marian Augusta DeLane's handwriting, leading to an identification of James DeLane (1839 - 1915), but the photographer, John A. Ennor, operated in Neillsville, WI from about 1885 to 1905.  James would have been 46 to 56 yrs. old at the time.  It seems more likely this is a picture of Nelson Adelbert Delane (b. 1876-77)  who was living in the city at that time with his father, Peter Delane (1837 - 1909).  *In 1893, Nelson was sent to the Waukesha, WI Reform School until he was twenty-one.  *In 1893, Nelson was sent to the Waukesha, WI Reform School until he was twenty-one.  He eventually moved to Leominster, MA where he became a "piano maker", married Lucy A. Crabtree and had 3 sons, Hermon/Herman, David and Charles.  He was not mentioned as a survivor in his father's 1909 Obituary.

WANTED TO BE OUTLAWS
=============

GANG OF BOY BURGLARS BROKEN
UP IN  WISCONSIN.

=============
Their Leader* Arrested and One of
Them Sent to the Reformatory—
They Had Ileen Reading: Dime Novels
About Jesse James.

=============


Eau Claire, Wis., Nov. 6, 1883—
Judge Bailey sentenced Nelson DeLane of Neillsville, Clark county, aged fifteen, to the Waukesha reform school till he is twenty-one. DeLane and Elmer Glass, a boy of the same age, were leaders of a gang of Neillsville lads who had been reading novels about Jesse James. Young Glass is the son of the police justice of Neillsville. The boys built a cabin about three miles from Neillsville. Starting in the center of the cabin they dug a tunnel and widened it into a cave, in which a man could stand upright. On the outside of the cabin they put up a sign which read: “E. G. &. N. D., Outlaws.” In spite of this nobody suspected these boys when a Neillsville grocery store was burglarized recently, and fourteen chickens were missed by an old lady in the neighborhood. Finally a lot of material was missed from the Clark county fair grounds, and one of the custodians sent Capt. Hommel, the marshal of Neillsville, to examine the outlaws’ cabin. He entered the cabin and saw a trap door in the middle. He lifted the door but the entrance below to the tunnel had been so cunningly concealed by boards on which was piled six inches of earth and leaves that he went no further. He concluded, however, to arrest DeLane  and Glass. DeLane  was captured but Glass had disappeared. DeLane confessed and showed the officers into the tunnel cave in which were found a large quantity of tea, coffee, chocolate and groceries. DeLane said they meant no harm, but supposed they were obliged to rob if they were going to be outlaws. Glass returned to Neillsville yesterday and will stand trial as his father claims he can prove the boy was at home the night the store was burglarized. DeLane is regarded by the rest of the boys as a traitor and they vow vengeance upon him. Other arrests may follow. *News Clipping

The former Wellington Piano Case Company Building is located on the west side of Green Street, a short way north of the junction of Massachusetts Routes 12 and 13, north of downtown Leominster. The building consists of three large sections, all of brick construction. The original central block is a four-story structure, finished in pressed red brick with granite sills, and a corbelled cornice. Windows are set in segmented-arch openings, and a six-story square tower with crenellated top projects near its center. To the left (south) it is connected to what is now a five-story structure with similar styling, and to the right is an attached two-story section.

The Wellington Piano Case Company was founded in 1895 by Frank E. Wellington, who had risen through the ranks of other piano case manufacturers in Leominster. The main block, built in 1895, was lauded into the 1930s as one of the city's finest and most modern factory facilities. The southern addition was made in 1906, and was originally six stories in height; the top floor was damaged in the New England Hurricane of 1938 and removed. The northern addition, originally used as a dry kiln, was made in 1919. Wellington's company was the last piano case maker to be established in the city. His company was later acquired by the Cable Piano Company. The building, after standing vacant for some years, was converted into condominium residences in 2002.  Wikipedia
