There, when Aaron "was only 24, he met up with Davy Crockett, then 40, wrestled him -- and won the match. As a trophy he received an iron fireplace oven". The story continues that "while Aaron and his wife still were in Kentucky, Sen. Abe Lincoln -- not too important at that time--passed through and stopped with them, and Priscilla cooked two turkey thighs for him in that same pot." It is also family tradition that Aaron went out and explored the west with "his cousin" David "Davy" Crockett.

Note: There is some controversy so it seems on the Craine/Crain name. Someone crossed out the name of Crane in the Death Liber at the Madison Co. Courthouse and wrote Crowe. From a GenForum posting by Diane Whisnant, she states the following: "My grandmother is the granddaughter of James Treadway and Mary Crain. She is 94 and still living and doing well I must say. I have the death certificate of Mary and know that it lists her father as Jesse Crowe. My grandmother knew her grandmother well and she says that her maiden name was definitely Crain. Note: James and Mary's Marriage License has her last name as Crain, and the Roberts and Crane Book written in 1955 gives Mary's name as Crane. Joseph Cephus Crane brother of Mary, married Rachel Ann Roberts. The 1860 Madison Co., NC Census also shows in household #765 the name of Jesse Crane. And another side note: James' military papers state his wife was Mary Crane (Compliments of Garnett Sprinkle).
