A couple of them should know better because they have been in this hobby for years. I've said this once to them and I will say it again. Vernon, Roger and others PAY ATTENTION!!!!!! She needs additional information about Catherine, wife of GEORGE BAKER Senior. I have already posted her birth and death dates here. Again, I repeat, PAY ATTENTION!!!! The piece Vernon posted about George Baker Jr. says he was born in Germany. Which comes the conclusion that George Baker Sr. was born their too. Where George Sr.'s wife Catherine was born will be a real bear to find out. The records for that time period, that far north in the county are miserable at best description unless you can find church records that list her maiden name. You might luck out and find an early deed. Or George Senior's will. I am not repeating myself which means YOU aren't listening either. You need a search of the Courthouses in Cambria and Indiana Counties for both wills and deeds for George Senior. And the ASSUMPTION is that John Baker was a son of George Sr. and a Brother to george Jr. I say assumption because I have not looked at the 1850 census which may or may not indicate anything. Your best bet would be to find obituaries for John and George Jr. to confirm relation. Have you gotten the BAKER file from the Indiana County Historical Society yet? Give it a shot. Another clarification. Peter Leasure took over the farm of george Baker Sr. when he died. If George Baker Jr. got it from leasure it was simply gaining back what was once theirs.
