Paging Carrie Bean

[RJNorton]

Thanks to Steve as he found two more articles. Steve writes, "The first one is from page 3 of the 16 Feb 1865 edition of the Daily National Republican. In it, Miss Bean is being escorted to a party by none other than John Hay. There is also a Mrs. Bean attending with her (her mother, perhaps?). Note that the article connects the Beans to Senator Harlan. The second article is from page 1 of the 26 Sept. 1868 edition of the Washington Evening Star about Robert Lincoln's wedding. It says Cora Bean was from New York. I haven't seen "Cora Bean" mentioned in other newspaper articles, so right now my suspicion is that Cora may just be a misprint of Carrie in the wedding articles. But that doesn't really fill in the blanks of who she and her parents/family were."
