Sir Matthew Deane, 3rd Baronet (c. 1680 – 11 March 1747)[1] was an Irish baronet and politician.
He was the son of Sir Robert Deane, 2nd Baronet of Muskerry and Springfield Castle, County Limerick by his wife Anne Brettridge, one of the three daughters and co-heiresses of Captain Roger Brettridge (1630-1683) of Castles Brettridge, Cope and Magner, County Cork and his wife Jane Hakby. Another source has his wife as Anne Bettridge, daughter of Colonel William Bettridge.[2] He succeeded to the baronetcy in 1712.[3]
Deane married Jane Sharpe, only daughter of Reverend William Sharpe.[5] They had three daughters and three sons.[6] Deane was succeeded in the baronetcy by his oldest son Matthew.[7] On the latter's death in 1751 the title devolved to the third son Robert.[7]
