Hello, I am new to the list. I have spent the last years looking for information on my grandfather, aunts, uncles, cousins and the like. . My grandfather, John W. Dean was born in 1858 in Scott County, Virginia. Somewhere along the way and after three wives, he ended up in Hazard, Kentucky where he finally met his demise in February of 1928 in an accident.. His third and last wife was my grandmother, Ellen Deaton born in 1894.They were married in 1910. My mother was under two years old and my grandmother was pregnant with Daniel Dean born in July of 1928. The children, as far as I know, were Helen, Tommy, Robert, Johnny, Roosevelt, Thelma, Theodore, Wellington, Mariam and Mabel and of course Daniel. Ellen was diabetic and pregnant and the younger children ended up in an orphanage after John W.'s death. Daniel was raised by one of Ellen's sisters, I believe her name was Rebecca. . You would think, with that many children, someone somewhere would know something about this family. I would be more than grateful to anyone that can help me find these people and in particular find out more about my grandfather. . Virginia in Seattle
