LOL! Should have started this in my 40's : ) Looking for proof of parents for Reverand Joseph Baker married to Catherine Barrier, daughter of Rev. Richard Barrier of Big Sinking Church. He had sons Silas Baker 1834-1920 married to Susana Dobbs 1843-1913, Richard, and Isaac 1848-1864 died in Andersonville Prison Civil War at age 16. I have searched high and low and see several lines posted - to Joseph/Mary Finner or Finley from the Captain John Hontas Baker line OR the Robert (gunsmith) Baker line. If I can find PROOF of his parents that would connect the link in either direction. I have read most of the books out there but haven't found anything conclusive... HELP! Thanks so much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
