I have found most of my information on these ancestors by Googling the first names of their children, Faba and Olyette. The Bakers named their daughter Olyette and they lived in Tompkins County at the same time that Hiram Smith and Lydia McGowan Smith lived there and their daughter was named Olyette as well. I was hoping my luck would continue in my searching of that unusual name and I would find a family connection in the Baker line to my Smith or McGowan ancestors...

It must have taken you quite a while to type all that up in your reply to my query, and I appreciate it greatly. My query was actually motivated by my interest in the family of Enoch Baker's wife, Elizabeth Jennings. Since I posted my query back in 2004 I've found out quite a bit about the Jennings family of Washington Co., PA. If you have any of the name Jennings in your ancestry, I'd be happy to return the favor and share.

Author: kabespir Surnames: Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.baker/8080.1/mb.ashx Message Board Post: I will post the BIO for this family in a moment. I found this query as I am looking for William Baker, b. 1814 PA who resided in Independence (then Hopewell Twp.), Washington, PA (Alvin Dinsmore White book). My William Baker married Matilda Quarterman. I cannot find his parents but noticed that Amwell Twp. isn't terribly far from Cross Creek, Washington, PA where my Baker lines are buried. I also had noticed a William Baker in this line. Here's the BIO posted in our bakerancestors group: BAKER BIO-MD-PA History of Washington County, Pennsylvania 1882 . AMWELL TOWNSHIP . Enoch Baker was of Quaker parentage, and was born in Maryland, Nov. 28, 1788. When he was about six months old his father, Nathan Baker, who was a farmer, moved to Chester County, Pa., where he remained until the beginning of the present century (from 1800 to 1803), when he removed to Washington County, Pa., and settled in East Bethlehem township. During Nathan's residence in Chester County his first wife died, leaving eight children, Lydia, Mary, Aaron, Nehemiah, David, Joseph, Enoch, and Nathan ; and he was married to his second wife, a widow, Mrs. Jordan, by whom he had four children,-William, Israel, Hannah, and Mahlon. Soon after settling in Washington County Nathan returned to Chester County with a drove of horses, and while there died, and was buried beside his first wife. Enoch Baker learned the blacksmith trade with Nathan Pyle, of East Bethlehem township. After serving his apprenticeship he worked as a journeyman four years with Christopher Slusher, and then purchased a farm on the road from Lone Pine to Ten-Mile village, where he spent the balance of his life. He was a hard-working, thrifty, conscientious man, who left a stainless character and reputation. He was prudent and discreet, a gentleman, and never permitted himself to say harsh things to those with whom he conversed. He was a man to whom his neighbors turned and asked advice when surrounded by difficulties. He was for many years a member of the Cumberland Presbyterian Church, and delighted to study and practice the precepts of Christianity. . He was married March .3, 1814, to Elizabeth Jennings, of Amwell township, Washington Co., Pa. He died Aug. 29, 1861. His wife died Aug. 5, 1862.
