Hi Malcom & Hazel,

I notice you have BAKER'S in your family I am trying to find my missing
BAKER's. The Baker who is in our family is Edward Baker, born 1872,
Almonsdsbury, Gloucestershire, England. Married Amy Mary Hopkins Young, 1899
in Bathurst, NSW. Edward Baker's father was Henry Baker & mother Eliza
Turner. Any connections?
