There is a couple that could be, but to my knowledge He was born in NY but lived his married life all in Bergen County... I do have him living 1840 and 1850 in Hackensack...And in 1860 I have a census that shows his daughter Eliza living with her sister (His Other daughter)Sarah M Dean (my GG Grandmother). So maybe Sarah M (Westervelt) Dean and John Dean were already decieased which I would love to find out, but maybe Eliza just lived with her sister for another reason. Thanks so much for you Help >From what I understand the Westervelts were well known in Bergen, but there were alot of them so I may never find out.
