• Notes

  After much research I have noticed some people dispute Jonathan "Jack" Parker Dean being related to Ebenezer or Jonathan Dean Jr. I have discovered in the 1850 Searcy Co. Census the location of J. P. Dean and family. Just below his entry is the entry of Jonathon Dean and wondered could this be Jack's grandfather. The details of Jonathon's entry is pretty strong evidence that he was indeed Jonathan Dean Jr. Jonathan was born in NY, his wife's name is Mary, born in VA, their ages are correct with the time line - it is too much info to be accidental. Jonathan Dean Jr. was born in NY, his wife, Mary Cole, was born in VA. He was ten years older than she, as the Census reports, they lived alone, they must be the two recorded. I suppose one could argue that Jonathan Dean Jr. and Mary Cole were there, but that fate simply put them all in the same County at that particular time of life, but that seem's implausable to me. There were a total of five Dean families recorded on the 1850 Searcy Co. Census. The odds that they were not related realistically seems extremely high.
