There is some conflict concerning Ira's middle name. The 1870 Federal census list his name as Dean Ira Sen. This has been interpreted to some as Lew instead of Senior. When comparing the census taker's handwriting on the page to other entries it's obvious that it's Sen and not Lew.
------------------------------
Ira was the son of William & Margaret (Fisher) Deane,
He married Charlotte H. Hersey on Aug. 20, 1815 in Easton, Bristol County, Massachusetts.
They had eleven children: Charlotte, Sally Ann, Edwin, Angeline, Charles, William, Thomas, Ira, Julia, Louisa, and Daniel.
Charlotte died on November 4, 1864. On February 20, 1865 he married Rachel Cooper Phelps.
Ira Dean Death Announcement
On Monday, Ira Dean, an old gentleman, aged about 80 years old died very suddenly at the residence of his daughter, Mrs. Mansfield, in Rock Grove township. He stopped at her house while on his way to Rudd, and complained of feeling unwell and asked for a little spirits to revive him. There was none in the house, so they sent to another daughter's, Mrs. Hemphill, who sent him some. He drank about a teaspoon, sank back and died in a few minutes.
The cause of his sudden death is supposed to have been heart disease. Mr. Dean was one of the pioneers of this county, and had been always noted as a good citizen and a good man. He was father of Wm. Dean, of Rock Grove township.
