Dr. Crary was born at Knox, the son of John Gallup Crary and Mary Spawn Crary, both natives of Albany county, He was of Scotch and English origin, his ancestors coming to America in the year 1600, some of whom settled in Connecticut and New York. His grandfather Crary came to Knox while a boy, late in 1700. They were a long-lived race, many of them living to eighty and ninety years, and in one case to the unusual age of 107 years. Dr. Crary's preparatory education was obtained at the Knoxville Academy and Union College, after which he studied medicine under the preceptorship of Dr. Sigsbee, of Knox, and later he became a student of Dr. Freeman, of Albany, and was graduated from the Albany Medical College, December 22, 1866.

It was my pleasure to know Dr. Crary well. He was a man of broad and liberal mind, generous in his impulses and true to his friends. By nature he was largely endowed with mental faculties of a superior order and a judgment quick to grasp the situation in emergencies and the ability to execute. Possessing these qualifications he necessarily favorably impressed those with whom he came in contact, and his friendships among the profession and the laity alike were equally strong, and consequently all sincerely regret that his life's labors are closed and we shall meet and greet him no more until that time shall come to us as it came to him, when life's fitful dream is o'er.
