THE WESTERN STAR, 4 May 1900
Obituary of CHARLES M. BEAN
BEAN - At his home in Logan tp., Comanche county, Kansas, on Friday, April 27, 1900, Charles M. Bean, aged 47 years, 7 months and 11 days.

The deceased was born, September 16, 1853, in Monticello county, Iowa. At 6 years of age, he moved with the family to Illinois where he continued to live until his removal to Texas in 1878. Mr. Bean was married in 1875, to Miss Nancy M. Cooper. Mr. and Mrs. Bean came to Comanche county in 1885 and settled on the place 10 miles east of Coldwater which has been their home ever since. He had long been recognized as one of the most successful farmers in the county. His success was chiefly due to his industrious and temperate habits and to the close attention which he always gave to every detail of his farm and home. He was universally respected for his honorable dealings with all his fellowmen. In the truest and best sense he was a good husband, a kind father and a worthy citizen. For a number of years he had lived a consistent Christian life. At the time of his death, he was a member of the U. B. church in New Eden. A wife, four sons, and one daughter are left to mourn the loss of a dear husband and father, but the sympathy of many kind friends and the comforting presence of Him who doeth all things well, will help them to be consoled.
