Bean FAmily

Excerpt from Joshua Bean of Exeter, Brentwood and Gilmanton, N. H., And Some of His Descendants Mr. Drummond was a diligent student of family history, the president of the association, and the largest contributor with tongue and pen to the objects of the organization. The proceedings of several of the meetings have been published under his editorial supervision, and are rich in historical notes, the results of his patient research. It was the wish of his heart that an up-to-date genealogy of the family should be collected and printed, and this wish was most heartily seconded by many others, especially by Dearborn Gorham Beans, Esq., of East Wilton, the efficient secretary of the association, who not only offered assistance in collecting family records, but guaranteed such pecuniary aid as was necessary to publish such information as could be obtained of the descendants of his ancestor, Joshua Bean4, if Mr. Drummond would superintend the publication. This book is the result of that arrangement. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
