William H Baker, of Clinton NJ, married Mary E Brown (1842-1884) of
Delhi, NY in 1865 in Wisconsin, returning to Clinton shortly
thereafter. Around 1868, Mary's mother, (b 1797) Orpha came to live
with them in Clinton. Mary died in 1884 - Orpha was 87 at the time and
still living with WH and Mary and their 2 children (daughters, I forget
the names). The marriage announcement and obit for Mary E are posted in
the Hunterdon Gazette on this site, I am looking for any information on
what happened to WH Baker, or more importantly, when and where Orpha is
buried so I can identify her maiden name, and other children. Thanks!
Any information on this family and especially Opha Brown would be
greatly appreciated!
