Info from Contributor: My name is Sheila Ruhl. I am the 3rd great granddaughter of Thomas Hickman Baker. My mother ordered the stone which is pictured for his grave. We had false information when we ordered the stone but since have received the correct information on his death. We received the information from a descendant's old family bible of one of his sons. The year of his death is actually 1890 not 1899.

His acutal date of birth is 12/22/1800 and actual date of death is 03/11/1890.
