    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Author: TBaker85 Surnames: Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.baker/14870.2.1/mb.ashx Message Board Post: Thank you for your information. I do not know if they called him RJ or not but his name is Robert Jay Baker. He had a sister named Betty. From my research Leonard lived next to his Dad John Henry Baker in Swan Cty Missouri. They sold moonshine and Leonard moved his family to the REMOTE mountains of Colorado after John Henry was shot and killed by a Deputy after he pulled a rifle on them for being on his property. I have read the police reports. He is buried in Swan Cty-http://www.wrvhs.org/taney/swan_baker.html I found this out via research, never knew this from anybody. My Dad did go back to Missouri later as a young man after his Dad was hurt in a sawmill accident and his mom had died. He then went into the military and was a pilot in Vietnam. His sister Betty moved to California and died of cancer several years ago. Who was John Henry's dad and were did they come from? Any information would be helpful.
