Web site, via NEGenWeb Project Resource Center, On-Line Library: In reviewing the history of Nance county, Nebraska, the citizens who have contributed largely to her welfare must be given special mention, and a prominent place among the number is accorded the gentleman above named. Mr. Dean is a pioneer settler and one of the best known, and most highly esteemed residents of that region. He is prosperous and has gained this success by the exercise of business tact supplemented by the strictest integrity of word and deed. William D. Dean was born on September 10, 1864, in Hunterdon county, New Jersey. He was the youngest child in Isaac and Elizabeth Dean's family of four, and grew to the age of six years in his native state, then the entire family moved to Illinois, settling in Rock Island county and remained there up to 1883, and then spent three years in Whiteside county, Illinois. They next emigrated to Nance county, Nebraska, joining a sister of William D., who had previously located here, arriving in the region on March 10, 1886.

Dean rented land from the time he came to Nebraska, up to 1898, when he bought eighty-three acres where he has since continued to reside, with the exception of two years at Fullerton, from the fall of 1901 to the spring of 1904. This place is well improved and well equipped with substantial buildings and machinery for conducting a model grain and stock farm on a small scale.
