Married 17 Apr 1822 St. Mary’s Church, Frittenden, Kent, England - * Probably * the marriage of the Thomas and Hannah who were the parents of Richard and John, but not certain.
From PR entry (image on FMP, viewed 20 Jun 2019), shows Thomas Dean married Hannah Cox, both otp, married by banns
There was a Thomas Dean baptised in Frittenden in 1792 so whose age would be close to that given in the burial register when this Thomas was buried. Also, a Hannah Cox of Frittenden was baptised in Cranbrook in 1795, consistent with the age given at the Sittingbourne burial. Moreover, this baptism was in a non-conformist church, a connection being likely given that this Thomas and Hannah had their sons baptised in non-conformist churches. These good age matches suggest it was this couple who were the parents of Richard and John.
Another Thomas Dean of Faversham married a Hannah (Peirce) in Canterbury on 10 Aug 1823 - that couple could be the ones who settled in Sittingbourne.
Since both of the Sittingbourne couple died before the 1851 census there is no chance of checking their birthplaces.

Family Caroline GOATHAM, b. 4 Dec 1833, Bredgar, Kent, England , d. 24 Apr 1920, Cazenovia, Madison Co., New York, USA (Age 86 years) Married 31 Jan 1857 St. John the Baptist Church, Bredgar, Kent, England - GRO ref: Goatham, Caroline to Dean, John q1 1857 Milton RD 2a 683
Details from PR entry (image on FMP, viewed 20 Jun 2019)
Married 'after certificate'
John signed, Caroline made her mark; witnesses (both signed) were George Goatham (Caroline's father or brother?) and her sister Susan Dean
The 1900 census shows that Caroline was the mother of 4 children of whom one had died. Richard and Fannie were clearly still alive (as in later censuses) so it must be either Charles or John who had died by 1900.
