Bonnie, My name is Beene. But, Bean is a variable spelling. The spellings that I have found of the line that I am researching in Red River Co., TX is Bean but I found marriage record where the name was spelled Been. They are all the same, Bean/Beene/Been/Beane, etc. Which Bean are you related by marriage?
