    I do not know of anyother homes in my area with that old of furnace in use. I was looking for input on what would be causing it to not stay burning.

    What does it burn; Natural gas, propane or oil?
    Some pictures from several feet back might help.

    Only about 100 different things. You need a pro regardless of fuel. If its oil, stop hitting the reset button.

    Flame sensor. There you can have a guess. Until you post more info that's what you'll get, guesses. 

    Since Crane hasn't made a boiler in a very long time, I'll raise you a thermopile.
