Elizabeth Dean or Deane was born abt 1770 in Warwickshire and arrived in the Colony as a convict in the Second Fleet on the Lady Juliana on 3 June 1790, aged about 19. She had been tried, together with Mary Warren, at the Warwick Assizes on 2 April 1788, found guilty of "feloniously stealing" linen and other goods and sentenced to be transported for seven years. Elizabeth married fellow Second Fleeter Anthony Brian in Sydney on 3 October 1795 by Rev Richard Johnson. The couple had three children: Mary, born 7 April 1792 at Sydney Cove, who at age 15 married Second Fleeter William Furber on 4 January 1808; Ann, born 11 January 1795 at Sydney Cove, and Maria, born 27 November 1796 at Sydney Cove, who married another convict, Patrick Field. On 19 November 1794 Anthony settled on a 30-acre farm at Eastern Farms (Kissing Point), roughly at the present site of Ryde High School and Christine Avenue, North Ryde. About 1790 Elizabeth left him for one James Evans, a Sydney carpenter, by whom she bore numerous children, the first in August 1800, before her death in 1829.
