Henry Clay Baker was the son of Thomas Weaver and Ann (Wing) Baker - my 3x Great Grandparents - making Henry Clay my 2x Great Grand Uncle. Henry was the brother of my 2x Great Grandfather Edward M BAKER; they had another brother - Charles W BAKER.
Henry married Sarah P. BARKER, daughter of William and Rebecca (Potter) BARKER, from Dartmouth, MA. There are two marriage records for them - one in 1864 in Dartmouth and one in 1865 in Westport, MA... both are recorded for 26 Dec.
The census records don't ever show any children over the years, but I have not yet done an exhaustive search in the birth records to see if there were any who may have died in infancy.
Henry Clay Baker was a Civil War Veteran who "Enlisted in Company E, Massachusetts 3rd Infantry Regiment on 23 Sep 1862". His rank at induction into the military was listed as a "Wagoner", and he did survive his enlistment.
His occupation was listed as a "Trader" in Westport in both his enlistment record, however, in his early years, he is shown as "Farm Laborer", then as "Salesman (bakery)" in later census records.

Thank you Glenn Russell for the better pic of Henry's marker -- my photography leaves a bit to be desired sometimes.
