This is a very exciting discovery for myself, my late mother always said that the Youle Dean Family were related to the Deans originally from
Dublin, Indeed my Great Grandfather and his family emigrated to Australia apparently at the suggestion of Edward Charles Dean
However when they arrived in Perth and I believe stayed with E C Dean
Family the father and two of the children went down with Typhoid and Died meaning that my great grandmother and my grandfather Frederick
William Dean had no choice but to voyage all the way back to England
He had nine children including my mother Hermia Dean..
I would love to know if any descendants of Edward Charles Dean are still living!
