Hi Lena. John Geter Baker b. Jul 1842 in AL. and his infant son, Charles arrived in Falls Co. TX with the Charles Webb Kinard family. They are listed together on the 1870 census. I haven't made a clear Baker connection to the Kinard family, at this time, except he could have been married to Sarah F. or Mary E., older daughters of Charles W. and Elizabeth P. Hill Kinard. John Geter married Johanna Kinard, (3rd daughter of Charles and Elizabeth's) on 13 Sep 1871 in Falls Co. Besides Charles, they had seven children together: William Abner b. Jun 1873 (my husband's grandfather-m. Annie Judidiah Woodall); Minerva b. @1877; Pearl b.@1878; Ida A. b.Sep 1880 (m. Christopher Columbus McCollum); Mary b. Nov 1884; Frank John b. Dec 1886 (m. Grace M. Davis and Lillie Belle? )and Alma b. Oct 1893 (m. Mitty Baker of Nacogdoches Co. TX.) One of the other Baker girls married Mitty Baker's brother, according to my husband's dad. William Abner is the only one that I have any information on. About the only thing I know about the Kinards, I got at Ancestry. com. Please let me hear from you about your Baker connection.
