Bean Cemetery can be found on Highway 62 in Lincoln, AR. It is located directly off the highway, across from the United Pentecostal Church in Lincoln. There is a very small park across from this church; the cemetery is beside (and behind) the park. There is an arched gateway with a cross on top, reading "BEAN CEMETERY, Since 1874". There are many unmarked fieldstones in this cemetery, as well as some damaged stones and metal markers. There are more unmarked/unreadable stones than there are legible headstones. However, the cemetery appears to still be in use. An asterisk (*) denotes a burial stated to be in this cemetery, but one that we didn't see a marker for on this visit. It doesn't necessarily mean that a marker isn't there, but just that we did not see it personally.
