Husband of Margaret 'Peggy' Tanner Baker.

Son of John Baker, Sr. and wife Sarah.

Joseph spent his whole life in the area now known as Kannapolis. In 1814, he purchased from his father a tract of 175 acres of land, located on both sides of Irish Buffalo Creek, for $500.

They were faithful members of Bethpage Presbyterian Church, and are buried in the cemetery there, at what is now Bethpage Methodist Church. When the church decided to move to a new location, Joseph made a valuable contribution towards its construction. He was ordained an Elder in 1828.
