There were lots of Bakers in Saratoga Co. My line has been difficult to research. Henry Baker was in Half Moon in 1790. His children included Christian (wife: Eve); Peter, Sarah, Thomas and William who married Anna Gleason and settled in Northumberland. Henry's youngest son was Hosea who married Sarah Golden and then "took off" for Ontario, Canada. Hosea's son settled in Saratoga Springs as did one of William's sons, Hiram Baker. Other given names associated with this Baker surname were Elmer Ezra, Daniel, John, Allen, Marilla, Haskell, Smith, Mary Elizabeth and Polly. and I have a Christian Sackrider who probably married Wealty Petit c. 1790. The 1800 census has a Christian in Half Moon. Christian is probably the one mention in Sylvester's History of Saratoga Co. as being a Captain in the 59th Regiment, Militia of Saratoga County after the Revolution until the War of 1812. He is also noted in that book as being a lawyer in Stillwater until 1800. Christian listed in the Albany Directory for the years 1816-1824 as an attorney. In 1824 his occupation was listed as: attorney, legal professions, counselor, supreme court and US court. His home/office was at 108 Beaver, Albany New York. Welthy Sackrider is in the 1820 census for Saratoga Springs, three females; 1 10-16, 1 16-26, 1 26-45. There was no Christian. Welthy Sackrider sold property in Saratoga Springs in 1823 to Clement Wilson of Saratoga Springs. How does a woman sell property without her husband unless he is dead and how can Christian be dead if he is in the 1824 Albany directory? I do need help on this one. Fletcher Bishop. [email protected]
