I would like to find descendents of Albert and Sarah-Jane Baker.
They were living in Piddletrenthide according to the 1881 census.
They had four Baker children: Bessie b.1876, Hedley b.1877, Eva b.1879, and Trixie (Beatrix?) b.1886.

Hedley Baker was my Grandfather.
He married Bessie Eavis from Cerne Abbas and he had three sons,named: Jehu Baker, Albert Baker (my Father) and Lloyd Baker.

I have photographs of Hedley and Bessie (nee Eavis) taken around 1906 with their two eldest sons. I have a few other photos and some stories.

Hi, I have an Albert Baker b.1840 who was a butcher. His parents were Robert & Martha.
Is this the same? If it is then im still researching the Bakers as they were from my mothers side.
