From "The Republican Leader" (Trenton, Nebraska), June 18, 1920

Helen Haase, daughter of Conrad and Barbara Haase was born in Hancock County Illinois, Jan. 21, 1860, and departed this life June 8, 1920 at the age of 60 years, 4 months, and 16 days.

She was united in marriage to George Andrew Baker at Niota, Illinois, on November 24, 1881. To this union were born eight children: four sons, George C., Clarence I., and J. Bryan, of Stratton, Nebraska, and Chas. W. of Trenton, Nebraska, and four daughters, Mrs. Corrin Silver of Stratton, Mrs. Fred Miles of Trenton, Nebraska, and Mrs. Ola House, of Warsaw, Illinois, and Mrs. Anna Ferguson of Fredricktown, Missouri.

Besides her husband and eight children, who will miss her presence, she leaves nine grand-children and two brothers Herman, of Niota, Illinois, and C.C. of Portland, Oregon; one sister, Miss Anna of Ft. Madison, Iowa, who will feel her loss as only a near relative can.

At 14 years of age she united with the German Lutheran Church of Tiogo, Illinois, in which church she always retained her membership.

Mrs. Baker has always been a dutiful and loving mother, kind to everyone she met. Her friends are numbered by her acquaintances.

She has been a sufferer for a number of years from rheumatism and dropsy, and altho her death had been expected for some time, her sudden passing was a great [?] to all her friends.

Her funeral was held at her home, conducted by Rev. W.P. Napier, of Trenton, and burial was in the Miles cemetery.
