i was wondering if anyone can help me connect two lots of baker ancestors. i have in my tree ruth baker born c1850 stelling minnis,kent,died 1929,gravel walk,ashford.she married thomas rossiter from bethersden,kent on 10th march 1868.ruths siblings were john,william,elery,mercy,george,stephen,and eliza,born between 1846 and 1866 in different kent locations.theirparents were john baker born c1824 kent,hawker/horse dealer and mercy barton born c1830 hythe,kent.they married 04 october 1853 peamarsh,rye,sussex.witnesses to the marriage were james and margaret baker.johns parents were william baker born c1796 aylesford,kent,labourer/hawker and katherine unknown. the other bakers im looking at are louisa born 1841 barham nr canterbury,general/timber/pig dealer/bobbing maker.her parents were james baker born 1801 canterbury,wood dealer and margaret unknown born c1803 sutton,kent.hawker.louisa had an older brother born c1826 place unknown and unknown partner.they had a son,louisas nephew,who married naomi todd born 1850 canterbury,hawker.i believe they had 8 children,all born stelling minnis.i believe that given the occupations they had in common,and shared places of birth,that they are related,and the james and margaret baker who witnessed john and mercys wedding were louisa and unknowns parents.the problem is,what was the relationship?given johns birthdate of 1824,and james of 1801,they could be brothers.equally,with john born 1824 and louisa born 1841,they could potentially be siblings.any help and additional info would be greatly appreciated,thanks,nel.

I had a look at some of these BAKERs too but couldn't get a birthplace for John BAKER (husband of Mercy BARTON) - what is your source for him being born/baptised in Aylesford son of William & Catherine Nel

Hi, i just recieved john and mercys marriage certificate and cant make out johns fathers name, does any one know if these details will be online somewhere, married 04 oct 1853 in parish church, peasmarsh. witnesses james and margaret baker, hoping james was his brother, this might help track down baptism or early census.
thanks, shane.

Hi Shane
Can you scan or even close-up photo the portion of the marriage certificate with the name that you can't make out and post it here or on the "Deciphering Help" board here on Rootschat http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/board,425.0.html where others will have a go at reading it?
