DEAN

Located near the corner of R. Booty Road and East Lewiston Road, Ward 2, Sec 41, 
T1S, R8E.  Attempts were made by Belford Carver to find a path into this cemetery 
on October 3 and 7, 2000.  It is inaccessible as of these dates due to the 
thickness of the trees, shrubs, and weeds.  Ms. Beverly McIntyre, who lives in 
this general area, confirmed that such a cemetery exists.  It is also marked on 
the Spring Creek quadrangle map.

This cemetery was recorded by Herbert and Marilyn Hart in 1975 with the following 
graves listed:

DEAN
Malissa L, 1867 - 1926
Charles F., 1860 - 1905

Infant of
C. F. & M. L. Dean
Born & Died July 24, 1904

Cullin W., son of
C. F. & M. L. Dean
Sep 21, 1905 - Aur 15, 1906

Charles F. Dean
Aug 5, 1858 - Oct 16, 1905
(only footmarker in place, headstone
& inscription moved)

According to their diagram, page 94, there were three unmarked graves in the row 
with Charles F. Dean.  They also gave the distance from Lewiston Baptist Church as 
2 miles.  At the time of their visit, they noted there was no fence, but it was 
cleared and the gravesites were clean.  (This would be east of the church on East 
Lewiston Road.)

(Evelyn Carter submitted information on this cemetery, 3/7/01, stating it is on 
the land belonging to the Sanders.  Also, there were graves with no markers.   She 
recorded dates for Charles F. Dean as Aug 5, 1860 - Oct 16, 1905.  His name 
apparently appears twice in the above, with two different years of birth.  It is 
closed.)
