He was a stonemason and a Church of Christ Minister. Family have told me he came from New York to Ohio with all his belongings on a wheelbarrow and preached the gospel along the way. Married Margaret (Margarette?) Miller who was from OH or PA. I have no information about her prior to Texas. Children born in Ohio are Eliza Baker Bell b1831; Albert William Baker b 1833; Daniel Baker b1833; Edward Baker b1835 and Harriette Baker b1836. Children born in Fayette County, TX are Joel Baker b 1838 m Aurelia Springsteade; Stephen F Austin Baker b 1840. I have quite a bit of information regarding Daniel Baker in Texas, but absolutely none before he came to Texas. He is my husband's gg-grandfather.
