Kron was born at Rockford, Illinois, on May 8, 1846, where he grew to manhood. He enlisted in Company F. One Hundred and Forty second Illinois Infantry and re enlisted in Company G. One Hundred and Fifty third Illinois Infantry. He attained the rank of sergeant and was mustered from service at Chicago in September, 1866. Upon his return from military service Comrade Kron returned to Rockford and engaged in the lumbering and contracting business until 1877 when he moved to Franklin County, Iowa, where he engaged in farming.
