Gwen, Yes, I am descended from John P. Baker, son of Andrew Baker/
Elizabeth Avant. I know almost nothing about him. He was born 15
August, 1784 Washington County, VA. He married Martha "Patsy" Jones
about 1803. He lived and died in Ashe County, North Carolina . He
died after 21 July 1855 (date of signing his will).( His younger
brother, Elijah Baker, married his
wife's sister, Sarah Jones.) John P. and Martha had six children. He
married
a second time, 8 April 1830, to Kijiah ???, who is listed in his
will.) He
was described by his grandson, my ancestor, as "a slave owning planter
in
North Carolina".
Gwen, Thanks so much for the information! Yes, a male relative has
been DNA'd and is a match for the Andrew/ Elizabeth Avant group of
Bakers, so it looks likely that we are "cousins". My John was born
after the Rev. War, so the Ensign Baker must be one of the millions of
Baker boys that confuse us so.
