F. Beans lives one mile from Elk Grove, which is his postoffice, and sixteen
miles from Sacramento. He was born in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, in 1839, and
lived there until 1856. At the age of sixteen years he came to California
across the plains, first settling in El Dorado County, where he remained until
1863; he then settled in this county, on his present farm. Mr. Beans was
married in 1870 to Mrs. Mary E. McFall, a native of Rome, New York.
