Van Beuningen was the son of Willem van Beuningen, a Protestant pastor and Adriana Maria Boonen.[1] In 1858 he started working as a clerk at the Dutch Rhenish Railway. However he was promoted within a few years and soon became their freight transport manager.[2]
Van Beuningen became politically active in 1878; first as a municipal councillor in Utrecht, and later as a member of the States of Utrecht. He continued to play these two roles until his death in 1908.
