Individual Details

(28 Apr 1866 - 14 Sep 1919)

Columbus (Lum) actually died of stings from a swarm of hornets while
out fishing with his son, Ervin Dexter Baker. From what I heard, it
took several days for him to die. That must have been horrible.
There is a grave marker at the Elwood Cemetery simply labeled C.
Baker..

Columbus Baker: I have as his place of birth as CULLEN, OH and his
death date as 14 Sept. 1919. I can check with some of his
grandchildren they may have something about him. Glenna Johnston
