    2. George & Sharon Clute
    3. Thought I would list this very weak information in hopes that someone might have some information. Looking for William ?Wilton? DEAN b. abt. 1873 possibly Indiana or Kansas. Married Gertrude Tomy "Gertie" CHANDLER. Had children in Southern MO starting about 1900-1911. Children: Lelia May, Roy Charlie, Harry E?, Bertha Grace, Mary Edna "Dolly", William Leroy "Roy", George Kenneth b. 1911. Rumors of three additonal children Alma, Riley, Jim. Gertie re-married and left MO and don't know what happened to William...if there was a divorce or a death. Not much but would love to take suggestions. Sharon Clute Mercer Island, WA

    1. John Dean
    2. Ernie/Kathy Kristof
    3. I just joined the Dean list, and want to ask if anyone has any information about John S. Dean, born abt 1860 in Red House, Putnam County, West Virginia. He is my great-grandfather. I know very little about him. In 1891 he married Eliza Jarrett and they had ten children before his death on June 28th, 1904 in a coal mining accident in Red Ash Mine, Fayette County, West Virginia. Other than that, the only trace of him I've been able to find is his listing on the 1900 census in Fayette County, West Virginia. If anyone knows anything about him, please contact me. Or, if you are descended from John Dean, please contact me. His childrens' names are: Lacy or Leacy (male - born Oct 1889 Ocie T. (male) - born March 1892 James Harvey and his twin Clarence A. - born Jan 1896 Silvia M. - born Aug 1897 Annie P. - born March 1899 Inez Golden (my grandmother) - born Dec 25, 1900 Mary - born 1902 Maude B.and her twin Martha B. - born 1904. Thanks for your help, Kathy Jones-Kristof

    1. DEAN, John born 23 Feb 1781 NY
    2. I am hoping to find someone researching this Dean family that help lead to locating John's parents. According to the 1850 Indiana Jefferson County (Smyrna Twp) records, John is listed as follows: Dean, John 70 Farmer NY Mary 57 England A.C. 28 Farmer NY Mary A. 15 Ohio Argus Shipley 33 NY Alice 10 NY? Camelia ? 3 IN John died 31 Aug 1865 and is buried in the Smyrna Church Cemetery. His wife Mary Ann was born 6 Jun 1793 in England and died 5 Jan 1865 and is buried same place as her husband John. The Argus Shipley is shown in several 1850 Census indexes are Argirs? Now, also buried in Smyrna Cemetery is an Agnes Dean Shipley, w/o J.W., b. NY d. 23 Feb. 1848 age 72 years. I wonder if she was John's sister? The son A.C. Dean could be Archibald C. Dean, b. 4 Dec. 1822 and died 1 Apr. 1891. The daughter Mary A. Dean, married John Ritchie and they are shown on the 1860 Census in Smyrna . John and wife Mary died in 1865; however, I have been unable to locate them on the 1865 Census. They must have been on their way to Indiana and Mary was pregnant with daughter Mary and gave birth in OH. I'm just guessing. Seems to be a large age gap between A.C. and Mary. I suppose there were other children that were grown with their own families in 1850 and I guess haven't made the connection yet. Has anyone out there heard of this Dean family? Thanks, Karen in Florida

    1. Jessie Claud Moore
    2. Jeanine Wichman
    3. I have a Jessie Claud Moore b. November 10, 1879, living with Nancy Ann (Slavens) and James Thomas Dean according to my great-grandmother's family Bible, (Carrie Ellen b. July 29, 1873., Indiana, d. Oct. 28, 1935, Iowa). Does anyone know of a connection with them? They would have been living in Viola Center Township (Audubon Co.) Iowa, which is south west of Coon Rapids (Carroll Co.) Iowa when Carrie Ellen wrote her family in her Bible. James Thomas Dean was born in Kentucky and Nancy Ann Slavens was born in North Salem, Hendricks Co., Indiana. I thought I had seen in the past a connection with Moore's by marriage to either the Slavens or Dean's in Indiana. As always, any help is appreciated. Jeanine Jwichman@mcsomaha.com

    2. Doris Fuller
    3. Hi Sheila. You do have a puzzle, however, do you suppose that Charles is possibly illegitimate but accepted by wife? Or maybe the whole census is screwed - for instance, Lila was born in 1986 ? (1896?) which would make her mother either 146 yrs old - or 46 (which in either case is pretty old to give birth).
