I know that I have a James C. Baker listed as a child to Erastus & Jane L. Baker in Reddish Township, Lewis Co., Missouri. The marriage might not be his. That I'm not as sure about, but he is the only James C. Baker that I was aware of in that area at that time. That would make him 21 when he married and that is not an unusual age for marriage. Do you know for sure that we're not talking about totally different people? Were your two married in Clark Co., Missouri?? Are you SURE about your James' Baker's family? How do you know who his parents are? I do know that Erastus and some of his brother's were from the New York Area, Southern New York, and of Revolutionary War stock. We have a picture of him on my website. You need to contact me directly and we should be able to work some of this out. My website is called Pioneers, Patriots, Puritans & Scalawags. The url is http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~bakhelvy/ I think you should be able ! to see his picture. If this isn't your James C. Baker we are probably talking about 2 different individuals and we need to tweeze out what belongs to whom. He is not my direct line and I'm piecing together information on his family. His brother George Alfred Baker is my Great-grandfather. We've always loved this picture of James C. Baker because he looks just like my dad's brother to a T. I know very little about the Ford connection. This may be an error on my part if they are two separate people.
