Dean Family.
The collection concerns four generations of the Dean family, centered first in New York State and later in Indianapolis. In 1798 John Dean, a Quaker, moved from Westchester to Brothertown, New York, to work on behalf of the Friends in New York City and Elizabeth, N.J. In 1830 Brothertown became known as Deansville and Thomas Dean was appointed postmaster. Dean's son John attended Hamilton College and became a lawyer, moving to Brooklyn, New York. In 1871 the Dean family moved to Indianapolis and established Dean Brother's Pump Works.
