Biography

In his "Autobiography of George Washington Bean," he traced his family to William and Naomi (Bates) Bean of Laurens County, South Carolina. George contributed to the works of Clan MacBean in North America, by Joseph S. Bean, and his biography is entered in Volume III, Second Edition Revised 1995, page 332-333.

George is the son of James Bean and Elizabeth (Lewis) Bean. His sister, Nancy Bean was one of the thirty wives of John Doyle Lee, an adopted son of Brigham Young. George took four wives to himself and was the father of thirty children, all born at Provo, Utah. He had more children than any other "MacBeans" of record in North America.

There is a photograph of George, the names of his wives and links to the memorials of 21 of his thirty children on his Find A Grave page here: http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=19023281

The DNA haplotype posted here (R-M269) is probably incorrect, though it may be correct for Isaac Bran descendants.

James Bean descendants, his brother Garret Bean's descendants, and his youngest brother William Bean IV's descendants all have haplotype IM-256. Contact me if you dispute this :-)
