    3. Bruce, Sorry I haven't got back to you sooner. Rev. THOMSON sounds like an interesting character.Would like to read about his escapades even if his son-in-law Samuel is not related to our BAKERs. Robert BAKER would have been about the right age for our George BAKER's grandfather, though. The CLARK family was close to the Bakers in Mecklenburg Co NC and one of them married a THOMSON girl. Wish we could find the connection if there is one. Bruce, I don't know where the name Cazaire came from. All the Baker researchers I have run across have that as her name. Her dad John MULWEE was born 1744 in Ireland so it may be an Irish or Scottish name. I searched on the computer for meanings of names. The closest name was Casarah , a relatively modern name from the song "Que Sera Sera, whatever will be, will be." Actually it may be a form of Sarah. I know that in the will she was called Rachel so I imagine that was her formal and legal proper name. Could she have been Rachel Cazaire Mulwee ? The name MULWEE is unusual also. I wonder if that name wasn't originally Mc Elwee. So you are a descendant of George Jr.? I don't have any information on him, but have a lot on Jonathan and Tamsen (RODDEN) BAKER'S children 7 some on several other of George and Cazaire's children. Jerry Mullins has a lot of information about Tamsen RODDEN's family also. I'm glad because I have so many irons in the fire working on my SIFFORDs, EDDLEMANs, HELDERMANs and PROFFERs in NC and several other of my family lines. I really like to learn of the maternal ancestors too.Jerry is agreat guy. Better go now. hope I hear from you soon. Vonda CLARK
