## Narrative
Elias George Dahne was born 5 October 1875 in [[Å iauliai]], Lithuania, a son of [[Nathan Dahne (b.1850)]] and [[Rachel Blum]] (MyHeritage biography; frontmatter vitals). He was one of at least seven siblings recorded in the tree, among them [[Harry Dahne (b.1875)]], [[Emmanuel Harry Dahne (b.1880)]], [[Minnie Ida Dahne (b.1886)]], [[Bessie Dahne (b.1886)]], [[Yetta Dahne (b.1894)]], and [[Eva Dahne (b.1895)]] (MyHeritage biography).
A single early biographical detail places him at about age 17 in Karlsruhe [?] — the MyHeritage note records "AGE: 17 / Karlsruhe," which may mark a stopping point on the family's emigration route westward, though the note gives no further context (MyHeritage biography, "Biography — from MyHeritage").
Elias married [[Minnie Neprotofsky (b.1882)]], and the couple raised a large family of at least eight children: [[Ralph Dahne (b.1899)]], [[Clara Dahne (b.1901)]], [[Blanche Dahne (b.1903)]], [[Sadie Deane (b.1904)]], [[Emanuel Dahne (b.1908)]], [[Dora Dahne (b.1912)]], [[Esther Dahne (b.1915)]], and [[Naomi Dahne (b.1918)]], born between 1899 and 1918 (MyHeritage biography). Across the census-style records summarized in his MyHeritage note he consistently appears as married and as head of his household (MyHeritage biography).
His working life is documented through his occupations at successive ages: he was recorded as a foreman, later in clothing manufacturing, and afterward as a manager (MyHeritage biography, occupation entries). Taken together these point to a career in the clothing or garment trade that advanced from a supervisory role toward management [?].
Elias George Dahne died 22 March 1950 in [[Washington]], USA, aged 74 (frontmatter vitals; MyHeritage biography).
