Hi this Elizabeth Baker could be the one aged 65 b Rumburgh, with a Mark Raven aged 75 in Ditchingham 1871?

So Robert Baker and David look like brothers and Elijah married Elizabeth about 6 years after David's birth. Both were single at marriage, so maybe one or both were underage and couldn't get parental consent.

There is a burial of an Elizabeth Baker Hancey in Rumburgh on 24 Nov 1884 age 84 abode Bungay, I think this is likely to be the right one. She may be in Bungay in 1871.

Thank you for that. I have googled John Watson Pipe and there is a thread on Rootsweb which mentions him. If the information there is correct (and it seems at least two people have independently found the same information) then it doesn't look like he was related to the Bakers / Cables. More likely a family friend named as an executor.

I've found John Baker of Holly Lodge, Ditchingham on the 1881 census. He was born in Rollesby, Norfolk in approx 1805, which is some distance from Rumburgh where David Baker was from. So I think he's probably not related, it is quite a common name.
