Notizen zu dieser Person

Jacob Baker was one of the prominent and
most substantial business men and farmers of his
community, owning a large tract of land, and
also a sawmill, fulling-mill and carding-machine,
which he operated. After the death of his brother
John he purchased his property. He married Cath-
arine Rockey, who was born in Lancaster county,
Penn., January 17, 1782, and died May 5, 1857.
She was the daughter of Henry and Elizabeth
Rockey, the former of whom was born in 1757,
and died in 1796, and the latter born in 1757,
died in 1807. The death of Jacob Baker oc-
curred April 19, 1827, and he and his wife were
were both buried in a private cemetery in Buffalo
township, on what was known as the Wendell
Baker farm, and in which Wendell Baker was
the first interment. The grandfather’s death re-
sulted from illness brought on by breaking through
the ice while crossing Buffalo creek. While not
a member of any Church, he leaned toward the
Dunkard faith, and led a straightforward, honor-
able life.
