Robert Baker (1794/1800) of Ashe Co, NCHome > Genealogy > Surnames > Baker > Families > Robert [Commentary] [Children] [Researcher List] [Register Report] [A Note about sources] [How to contact me] [Home] I (Marty Grant) don't know how or if I'm related to Robert Baker, but he could easily be related to my ancestor Jacob Baker (1760/65) who also lived in Ashe County. Robert Baker was born ca 1794/1800 (per census analysis). I don't know where he was born, though probably in what is now Ashe County, North Carolina (which was part of Wilkes County until 1799). I don't know who Robert's parents were. There were several Bakers in the area who could be his father. James Baker (1775/80) had an apparent son this age. Morris Baker (bef 1755), Zachariah Baker (1775/80), and Thomas Baker (1760/65) also had at least one apparent son Robert's age (per 1800 and 1810 census records). Any of them (or none of them) could be Robert's dad. I have no evidence to narrow it down yet. Robert Baker would probably have been home with his parents for the 1800 census and listed in the "under 10" age group (born ca 1790/1800). The Baker's I mentioned above as possible parents, each had an apparent son that age in 1800. Robert would probably have been home with his
parents in 1810 probably in the age 10-15 age group (born ca 1794/1800).
James Baker (1775/80) had an apparent son
that age, as did Zachariah Baker (1775/80)
and Morris Baker (bef 1755) as did an
unidentified "J. Baker" who might be John Baker
(1783). I don't think he was old enough to be Robert's father, but could be
an older brother instead. Robert Baker did not appear to be listed on the 1815 Ashe County Tax list, so he probably did not own any land yet. Robert Baker married someone between 1810 and 1820, presumably in Ashe County (no marriage record found). I don't know his wife's name, but she was also born ca 1794/1800. Robert Baker was listed on the 1820 census in Ashe Co, NC. There were quite a few Baker families in Ashe County, NC. Unfortunately, the 1820 Ashe County census was alphabetical, so we can't determine where anyone lived, nor who their neighbors were. 1820 census analysis (based on available evidence): (Explanation of this census) 1820 Ashe Co, NC pg 4 Robert Baker 000100-00100 Analysis: 1 Male(s) 16-25 (1794-1804) Robert BAKER (1794/1800) 1 Female(s) 16-25 (1794-1804) Wife? (1794/1800) Robert Baker was still in Ashe Co, NC for the 1830 census. Fortunately, this one was in the original order, so we can determine (more or less) where each person lived and who their neighbors were, however, he was not listed near any other Bakers. 1830 census analysis (based on available evidence): (Explanation of this census) 1830 Ashe Co, NC pg 6 Robert Baker 2000010000000-2300010000000 Analysis: 1 Male(s) 30-39 (1790-1800) Robert BAKER (1794/1800) 2 Male(s) 0-4 (1825-1830) Son? (1825/30) Son? (1825/30) 1 Female(s) 30-39 (1790-1800) Wife? (1794/1800) 3 Female(s) 5-9 (1820-1825) Daughter? (1820/25) Daughter? (1820/25) Daughter? (1820/25) 2 Female(s) 0-4 (1825-1830) Daughter? (1825/30) Daughter? (1825/30) I was unable to find Robert Baker on the 1840 census. He may have died in the 1830's or moved away. ChildrenRobert Baker had lots of children per the 1820 and 1830 census records. I have not identified any of them yet. I would assume that all of them migrated away in the 1830's with their parents.
