sob ......... I wish I could find BAKER cousins like that. Anyone in Harrisburg able to go over to the Police station and see if they have any pictures on the wall ? lol. On a serious note tho, does anyone know if the Harrisburg Police Dept has any records on their ex employees ?? Along the geneology lines anyway ? It has been my understanding that at least 2 of my Baker clan were cops (go figure) . I believe that one was Benjamin Baker (not sure if it was Brooks or Browder for middle name) the other would have been JAMES JASPER BAKER 1843 - 1905. In the obit of James wife (Francis Amanda Horning Baker) it mentions that she was the widow of James J Baker one of the first Marshalls. As the Saline Co Sherriff had nothing at that time, I assume he may have been a town marshall ? any thots are greatly appreciated, thanks, steve stuck in the hills of WV "FREE HILLS ! ! delivery extra !
