I haven't seen much activity on this list lately . . . hope someone out
there can help. I am researching the Dean/Ritchie line as follows:
Mary A. Dean, daughter of John Dean. Mary was born Feb 26, 1835 in OH and
died September 20, 1903 in Jefferson County. She married John Robert Ritchie
in 1856.
I have written to the Health Department (twice) and written to the library
regarding an obit. The Health Dept. says they can not find a record and I
find all obits from I think 1901-1905 are lost.
I see from the Death Records her brother, A.C. Dean died in 1891.
According to the 1850 Census, her father John, was born about 1780 in NY and
her mother May or Mary was b. about 1793 in England.
Would really appreciate help trying to find out more about this Dean family!
