Scotland / Re: Charles Dean

Thanks to you both! I did find the record of Charles, b. Crawford, Lenark, Scotland in 1797 - His parents are listed as James Dean and Margaret Wightman - There is also a Charles Dean who married a Margaret Duckworth in Manchester England in Dec of 1824 - However that record does not say where he was born - the James Dean/Deane I am tracing was born in Aslley Bridge, Lancashire in 1824 and married in Aug of 1845 where his father is listed as Charles Dean, b. Scotland - Depending on census it appears the name has been spelled with the "e" and without - Only problem with the Charles of Crawford is his marriage in Scotland in 1824 - James would have been born in England by then!! James father is in all census records listed as born in Scotland so I suspect this is accurate - Enjoy your day both of you and thanks again - Oh and don't worry about my linking to my Scot heritage - my great great grandmother was Matilda McIntosh - that line was very easily traced!! Had no idea the Dean's might have any Scot in them but proud to take all the stubborness my family has and spread it across the generations!!
