Hi, The line of Bakers from which I am descended came to Mass. via Newfoundland, from England. I have traced it back to John Bakerwith a fair amount of certainty. However, I am pretty comfortable naming his father as Samuel, from Dorset, England. The line is as follows:
(Samuel)
John b. 1816 wife, Sarah
Job b. 1835 wife, Rachael Dorey
Reuben b. 1861 wife, Isabella
Edgar R. b. 1892 wife, Kathleen (came to Quincy, MA 1922)
Reginald b.1922
Stephen
Stephen (ME)
I would be happy to help anyone interested in this line.
