  • Notes 
    • Where did this data on Susan Baker's parents and siblings come from? I don't have that recorded. But I have found a Susan Baker, whose parents were Christian and Anne-Marie, totally different. I have census info on this but I can't absolutely verify that their Susan Baker is our Susan Baker.
