Surrey Completed Look up Requests / Re: Baker family - Norwood
« on: Wednesday 03 September 08 18:40 BST (UK)  »
Thank you for all your work.  The reason I thought there were only four is that my mother only knew 4. They were referred to in the family as the 'Four Baker Boys' and all the photos we have there are only the four sons.  I wonder what happened to the elder and why he as never mentioned?

Going to hunt out birth certificates for them all and see if the mystery of the French bride is true.  Recent family history amazes me.  How little my mum knew of her own grandfather!

Surrey Completed Look up Requests / Baker family - Norwood
« on: Wednesday 03 September 08 10:37 BST (UK)  »
Hi

I am looking for members of the Baker family: Victor b. 1890,  Ernest Edgar b. 14.1.1892, George b. 1894.  There was an older son born in Essex called William.  Their father was Henry Baker b. 17.10.1839.

The mystery is that I can find no mother.  The family story is that there were two mothers, one of them possibly French.

Any information welcomed,

Helen

Hi,

I am looking for information on Joseph Baker.  He is registered as living in Coleshill in 1839 and he is said to be a clock and watchmaker.   I think he was married to a Martha Boddington.

Thanks

Helen
