A GENEALOGY OF EBER AND LYDIA SMITH BAKER OF MARION, OHIO AND THEIR DESCENDANTS
REVISED TO OCTOBER 1909
Arranged by Elwood T. Baker, of Brooklyn, N.Y.
Published by Lydia Amanda Copeland, of Chariton, Ia.

INTRODUCTION

A Genealogy of the Family of Deacon Smith Baker, of Litchfield, Me., son of Capt. Smith Baker, who was a brother of Eber Baker, was publsihed in 1874 by Rev. Smith Baker, 3rd, D. D., of Lowell, Mass. In 1888, Charles, son of Eber Baker, added to the above and published "A Genealogy of the Family of Eber Baker."
This is a rearrangement and continuation of the forgoing, brought down to October, 1909, to which has been added a genealogy of Lydia Smith, wife of Eber Baker, taken from "A Genealogy of William Brewster," by Emma C. Brewster Jones, 1908.
Prefixed to the name of each member is the family key number. The number of digits contained in the key indicates the generation removed from the parent stock; the figures themselves show the branch or family rank, the female members being printed in smaller figures.
For example: 328 us the 8th child, a son, of the 2nd child, a son, of the 3rd child, a daughter, of Eber and Lydia Smith Baker. To ascertain the generation from Francis Baker or William Brewster, 7 or 8 respectively should be added to the number of figures in the family key. No. 328 is the 10th generation of Francis Baker's and the 11th generation of William Brewster's family.
By means of this key the varios relationships between members of the family can be readily traced:
Parent and child-The latter contains one more figure and the smae figures except the last: 22, 229; 562, 5625.
Brother and sister-The same number of figures and similar except the last: 221, 229; 5622, 5625.
Uncle or aunt and nephew or niece-the latter must contain one more figure and all preceeding the last but one the same: 6, 56; 24, 236; 141, 1422.
First cousins-Equal number of figures and all preceding last but one the same: 24, 42; 113, 133; 2151, 2161; 32411, 32432.
First cousins once removed-One figure added to either of first cousin's key: 113, 1331.
Second cousin-One figure added to each of the cousin's keys: 1131, 1331.
It will be noticed that the first figure of every key indicates the branch from the first generation. George W. Baker, being No. 1, all his descendants will begin with 1; all Charles Baker's descendants with No. 2, and so on for every subordinate branch.


HON. EBER BAKER


Founder of Marion, Ohio, was born on a farm in what is now Bowdoin, Maine, at that time with Litchfield Corner forming a part of the territory of Hallowell, Me.
The graves of his grandfather, Barnabas Baker; his father, Capt. Smith Baker; and his brother, Deacon Smith Baker, are all side by side in the church yard at Litchfield Corner. He was born Aril 27, 1780, and as the age fo 22, June 29, 1802, married Lydia Smith, whose sister Mary married his brother, Deacon Smith Baker.
Barnabas Baker (6th generation), his grandfather, married and lived in Yarmouth, Mass., about nin years, and in 1763 removed to Bownylin, Brownington, Nova Scotia. After dwelling ther ten years he removed in 1773 to Pownalboro, Me., where his three youngest of fifteen children were born. It was formerly said of Bowdoin and Litchfield that almost every on there was a Baker ora smith, or a Smith Baker or Baker Smith, and the Bakers and Smiths have been intermarrying ever since (No. 16, 3rd generation, No. 233, 4th generation; see No. 271, 4th generation).
Eber Baker resided for a time at Gardiner, a town about ten miles south of Augusta, Me., and at the opening of the War of 1812, enlisted in the army. He soon became dissatisfied with the inactive life of the soldier, his regiment having been assigned to guard and camp duty, and he employed a substitute and resigned. In the early part of 1813 he decided to emigrate to the little-known country west of Pennsylvania, and with his family, he journeyed to Boston. Here they purchased emigrant outfits and traveled in covered wagons all the way to Wheeling, Va., where he decided to settle down. He bought a farm but occupied it only a year, when he sold out and moved farther west to Newark, Ohio, arriving there in 1814. Here his youngest child, Lydia, was born. After a few years, he started on a prospecting tour in the interior of the state. Passing though Columbus and Delaware, he pushed on twenty miles norht of the latter place, where he found a deserted log cabin sheltered under the slope of a hill, afterwards known as the "Hollow." The site suited him and he returned to Newark, purchased the land from the Government, sold out and removed in 1821 and laid out the town plat, naming it after the celebrated revolutionary general, Francis Marion.
"In his plat for the town he appropriated four lots for church houses, one for each of four different denominations; five lots for court house and jail, and several acres for a cemetery. He built a log jail at a cost of $400 and presented it to the county. When the Protestant Episcopal Church was ready to avail itself of a lot, Mr. Baker bought a lot at $620 and presented it to the church, besides $1000 in money toward the erection of a building.
Mrs. Baker died June 24, 1843, lamented by all who knew her, especially by the poor and less fortunate, to whom she was always a generous and sympathetic friend. He was married a second time to Mrs. Susan Wilson, who outlived him many years.
Mr. Baker was public spirited, liberal in contributin to the various town enterprises, material, moral and religious, and was, during most of his life, with his second wife, a member of the Prostestan Episcopal Church. He was a Representative to the Ohio State Legislature in 1826-27."
"The county of Marion, though name and defined by boundaries as early as 1822-3, was not organized until March 1, 1824. There was a sharp conflict for the county seat between Marion (the owners of the site), the owners of land two miles norht, Big Islan, Claridon, and a paper town called Bellevuron, five miles east of Marion. the Commissioners appointed by the State to make a selection were feasted and favored by the citizens in the respective localities. All the sites were examined and the ward was given in favor of Eber Baker, probably on account of the ease with which water could be obtained on his land. This decidion has resulted in giving Marion its present advantage over all competing points. The land two miles north and Bellevuron are now good farms; Big Island has never grown beyond its initial point; Claridon remains as the original nucleus. Even the capitals of neighboring counties are falling behind in respect to railroad facilities."*
Marion is to-day one of the most prosperous and flourishing cities in the State. Eber Baker lived in Marion fifty-three years and died there October 6, 1864, at the age of eighty-four years.
