Death Of John Dean
A Long and Useful Life Closed
John Dean, father of Dr. J. W. and George T. Dean, died April 16th, at the residence of George T. Dean; of apoplexy. Had he lived one more day he would have reached eighty-one years of age, having been born on April 17, 1807, in Clark County, Kentucky. He married to Mary Gardner September, 1831, and moved to Gosport, Indiana, in 1834 and lived on one farm thirty-four years. He was a member of the M E Church about fifty-five years, and belonged to the Odd Fellows some thirty years. His wife departed this life a few years since. The funeral services were held at the First M E Church on the 17th at 1:30 o'clock, conducted by Rev. John H. Cox. The large attendance attested the esteem in which he was held in the community. The independent order of Odd-fellows had charge of the burial, and tenderly and lovingly laid away the remains in Miriam cemetery. Mr. Dean was a noble man, lived a long and useful life and died with a Christian's faith. His only children living are JW and George T. Dean. How precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints.
