Individual Details

James "Claybank" BAKER

(Abt 1768 - )



Various wives are given for James - one is Susannah Morris. It is true that a James and Susannah Baker were the witnesses to John Baker's consent for the marriage of Iffa Baker and Elisha Harrison. But it is also true that George Baker, uncle of James, was married to a Susannah Morris, 29 Aug 1778, Wilkes Co NC. A WorldConnect file states James married Mary "Polly" Allen circa 1787 and (2) Betsy Collie, 1818, but gives no sources or children and I find those names nowhere else.

Note the following James; he was on the same page with Boling Baker Jr. and a John Baker over age 45. This is apparently a much younger James.
