Short Biography

     Kyrl was born circa 1803 in Cork. His father died when Kyrl was about seven.

Kyrl Allen Deane married Mary Lucinda Gregg in Cork in 1825

He began practicing law but in 1837 Kyrl and William Henry Gregg -perhaps his wife's father or her brother - dissolved their partnership. He became Clerk to the Board of Guardians for the Poor of Cork Union in 1840.

Kyrl was ignomiously removed from his position of Clerk to the Guardians of the Cork Union and lost his residence on 27 January 1847; it was later estimated that Kyrl had embezzelled £2,046. He (and presumably his spouse Mary) moved to Boulogne-Sur-Mer, Pas-de-Calais, circa 1848.

Kyrl Allen Deane emigrated from London or Plymouth on the 'Prince Regent' with his 11 year-old son Alexander; would seem that he abandoned the rest of his family in Ireland.

He became a Managing Clerk in an auctioneers, but soon left this and entered into a partnership on to run a general merchants and commission agent.

Kyrl apparently gradually went down in the world after opening awine shop, taking up with a woman called Rosanna Reed, with whom he had at least 3 children. In a letter, his brother Kearns states he would like to smash her face in.

Kyrl tried to sue his children in Australia to look after him in his old age. He married Rosanna Reed on 1878 in Adelaide. They married after having had 3 children and spending more than 16 years together. Kyrl was to die just 6 weeks after his marriage.

Kyrl died on 14 December 1878 in Prospect. His body was interred in North Road cemetery.
