| Note | There is no record of Charles Baker after the 1854 Iowa State Census, He cannot be found in Texas, where Martin, Josiah and Louisa migrated in 1854, nor did he accompany his brother David to Kansas. Elma Baker in "The Rugged Trail" states that Charles did go with his father, brother and sister to Texas and served as a Texas Ranger and as a postmaster -- none of this can be substantiated. (Note that "The Rugged Trail" is filled with errors: it also states, for example, that Charles' brother William went to Texas, when it is clear that William died before the family moved from Iowa to Texas.). |
