Hello David. Please refer to my 24 Nov 2004
Ancestry.com Chamberlin Message Board reply
to a query in that location, and my research notes below. Ichabod Dean was born, 19 Sep
1799, Dover, New Jersey, and died, 1 Nov 1872, probably in Bureau County, Illinois. His
first wife, Rebecca Chamberlain was born Nov. 1804, probably New Jersey, and died about
1836 in Morris Co., NJ, with 5 children listed for them. Ichabod's second wife was
Elizabeth Hammond, married, Feb. 1837, with no children listed for them in my records
here, and there was a 3rd wife. My research notes for Ichabod state:
NOTES
Son of Jonathan & Hester (Fairchild) Dean. He married three times: 1) Rebecca
Chamberlin, m. c1824; 2) Elizabeth Hammond, m. Feb/Mar 1837 with children Harriet b. 1841
NJ, and Ephraim b. 1842, Alexander, Delaware Co., NJ; 3) Asenath Dunn, m. 3 Jun 1868. LDS
Ancestral File for this family submitted by Terry Dean Thedell, 6229 Hannon Ct., San
Diego, CA 92117. Data also from Mary B. Spies who says Ichabod & Elizabeth bought and
sold property in Berkshire Twp., Delaware Co,. NJ, moved West settling in Clairion Twp.,
Bureau Co,. IL in June 1856.
END OF NOTES
My research notes for Rebecca:
NOTES
They had 5 children before her death. Data for this family from Chamberlain Chain, Vol.
5, p. 25; Vol. 9, p. 26; Vol. 18, p. 26, queries submitted by Mary B. Spies, 101 E.
Hawthorne, Hawthorne Manor, Box 27, Spokane, WA 99218-1463. She provided the birthplace
for Rebecca's first child. LDS Ancestral File, IGI record, and PRF for this couple do
not identify Rebecca's parents.

Ancestry.com Chamberlin Message Board postings, dated 24 Nov 2004, and
again 19 Oct & 4 Nov 2006, by Sandie Simpson [Email: beanlesandie(a)hotmail.com ],
asking about the ancestry of this Rebecca Chamberlin, born 1803, Jefferson, Morris Co.,
NY, who married Ichabod Dean in 1824. JBP's 24 Nov 2004
Ancestry.com response, says
she is most likely related somehow to the family of Benjamin & Martha
"Patty" (Byram) Chamberlain of Sussex Co., NJ, descendants of William(1)
Chamberlain, possibly mentioned in the A. J. Fretz book, and that the members of the
Chamberlain Association there in New Jersey might be able to help trace this individual.
JBP's 20 Oct
Ancestry.com response repeats the same message. Not listed in DCC's
FGRs for this family. JBP's 6 Nov

the New Jersey Chamberlain Association Reunion.
