---------
There is definitely a Henry Baker who was a veteran of the Revolutionary War. He was married to Phoebe Clark and his parents were Henry Baker Sr. and Phoebe Hedges. Some believe this is that Henry Baker, however there are some inconsistent facts such as the fact that the soldier was born in 1755 in Westfield, N J and died in 1839 in Watkins, N Y. I don't believe that this Henry Baker is the same Henry Baker as that one. He might still be a Revolutionary soldier, but I can't absolutely prove it.
