The Deane Family Tree by Rodger Deane 2006
I first started research into the family tree in November 2006 with information gained from relations and family bibles. Please use the following links:
Graham Cope-Cartledge
One piece of information was a press cutting from the local evening newspaper the Evening Sentinel c 1960 (North Staffordshire and Stoke-On-Trent) asking for members of the Deane Family of Norton to contact Graham Cope-Cartledge (a North Staffordshire genealogist who had been commisioned to trace the Family Tree by my great Uncle Geoffrey Arthur Deane) with a list of names that the family were related to. Apparently no one purchased the 'Deane Tree'.
Genes Reunited
My initial research was through the genes reunited site; where I was united with long lost relations on the Deane side of the family - John Repton Deane B.E.M. and his brother Peter Deane who surprisingly only lived about 4 miles away. John and Peter directed me to view their copies of the Repton tree, which also contained part of the Deane tree; compiled for the family in 1965 by Graham Cope-Cartledge.
In 2006 I was in contact with Mike Adams who via his family tree site advised me to obtain a copy of the book The Adams Family of North Staffordshire by Percy Adams giving a history of the Adams Family. In 2007 I contacted Ann Bowers, nee Deane the daughter of Geoffrey Arthur Deane who surprisingly only lives half a mile away in Biddulph.
A great deal of work has yet to be done. My genes reunited site contains over 4000 names and as and when time permits and records are confirmed then this site will develop. In the mean time please enjoy what I have compiled so far.
Norton Le Moors
My Ancestors worked two large farms in Norton le Moors; Norton Hall Farm on Norton Lane, which is now demolished and modern housing built, and Heakley Hall farm, which still exists as a working farm today.
Heakley Hall Farm has a history all its own which can be viewed here
