Subject: BEANER Surname Spelling Change

I am researching a Beaner family in Westmoreland and Somerset Counties.
George Beaner, born in England, settled in Westmoreland County with his wife
Nancy
Baker and had 7 children - John, Daniel, Lewis, Mary Katherine, Samuel, Nancy
and George.

Daniel moved to Somerset County where is had a farm. For some reason, Daniel
changed the spelling of his last name from Beaner to Beener.

Does anyone know anything about why Daniel changed the spelling of his
surname?

Thanks,
Colleen
