Obit - Laconia Democrat - Oct 31 1890
"Laconia lost this week one of her older and much respected citizens in the person of Mr. E.B. Beaman, who passed away at his residence on High Street last Monday night. About ten days prior he was severely injured in a runaway accident. Fears have been entertained from the first that the shock would proove too much for a man of his years and he was called at times to bear intense pain. But such was the resolute spirit of the man that it seemed at times he would rally. He was tenderly nursed but the end came suddenly at last. He was a man of modest bearing, genial in manner, an honest and good citizen, and faithful father and husband. He was survived by his wife and two sons F. G. Beaman, of Laconia and Willard of Everett Mass. One son Charles was killed in the Civil War and one son Benjamin predeceased him in 1872." (his obit leaves out son Frederick Lauriston Beaman who resided Brainard Minn)
Eri Beaman was born in Princeton Mass the son of Gideon Beaman Jr. and Abigail Brown. He had siblings Ellery, Calista, Abigail, Ziba and Caroline and half-siblings Jonas and Martha Ann. At an early age apprenticed to the trade of bookbinding. He worked his trade in several Massachusetts towns including Boston and then relocated to Manchester NH not long before the Civil War. In Sept 1861 he enlisted in Co A, Seventh NH Volunteers and served for 11 mos being discharged for physical disability at Beaufort SC Oct 1862. He then returned to NH and relocated to Laconia and began his business in 1864 in the Walker Bldg on Main Street where he built up a prosperous business as a bookbinder and maker of paper boxes. His business survived him and was taken over by his sons after his death.
He was a Free Mason and a member of the John L. Perly Post.
He married Miss Rosanna Wilder in Fitchburg Mass and lived to celebrate his fiftieth anniversary. The couple had five boys, Benjamin, Fred, Charles, Frank and Willard.
He had a box business on Lake Street as well as his bookbinding business on High Street, now Beaman Street, in Laconia. His old home has passed from the family but is still standing.
He, his wife and four of his children are buried in the Beaman lot in Union Cemetery. On his stone stands the crown and the cross, "in hoc signo vinces", victory over secret mysteries.
