If your surname is Dean then you are doubly welcome because this may also turn out to be your home page also!
The Dean family presented here is of Staffordshire, England and dates back to 1600.
Early on in the family tree, in the 1700's, a complete line of the family name appears without any date or place of death, this will need more research but it may indicate that this branch of the family left for the "New World".
As I develope my researches I will up date the information presented, this will also include descriptions of the origin of the name, both Anglo-Saxon and Italian (now there's a suprise!)
