Joseph Earlie and Frances had nine children: Roxie May, Essie May, Earlie Leon, Lexie Lee, Hubert Clarence, Ralph, William Judd, Reese O. and Mildred Frances.

Joseph Earlie Baker was a small frame man with curly black hair which he wore parted down the middle. He was known for having the finest mules in the county. He kept them clean with their manes trimmed and looking good. He liked his mules to be young and frisky and to dance, no slow prodding mule for him. He bought a new team of mules every other spring. He also liked to trade cars every other year.

Joseph Earlie died 16 October 1932 in Harnett County, N. C.. He was shot with a shotgun by Ed M. Jurdon. (Jurdon drowned himself before his second trial - first trial ended in a hung jury).

When Earlie died Frances was broke. The farm was mortgaged and the bank was going to foreclose. She had to sell all the farm equipment, even the hoes. Clossie Williams offered to rent Frances a farm and furnish her everything. All she would have to provide would be the labor. He owned several farms and said she could have her choice. When she told him she wanted to keep her farm, he suggested she talk to Nathan "Cotton" Johnson in Dunn.

Jody Mills took Frances and her son, Judd age nine, to Dunn to talk with Cotton Johnson. Frances told him her financial situation and asked if he could help. Johnson called the Raleigh Land Bank and verified what was owing on the farm and the yearly payment. [This was the first time that Judd had seen a telephone (it was a crank type) and he was amazed that the man could talk to someone in Raleigh and that he (Judd) could not hear them. He said he was "awe struck".] Johnson made arrangements for Frances to pay the yearly payment to buy the farm and agreed to sell her all the equipment, supplies and groceries she would need on credit until she sold her tobacco crop the following year. He told her she could buy groceries on credit at his store or at Layton's store in Lillington or Reid Smith's store in Kipling. The agreement was for Frances to pay the mortgage by November 1st and then pay Johnson what she could. Johnson told her that he would bend over backwards to help someone that he felt was trying to pay him what they owed him, but if someone tried to cheat him he would take everything they had and even pull up the collards in their garden. That was how he got the name of being a hard man.

Frances farmed the land with the help of her children and in a couple of years had paid Johnson all she owed him. In a few more years she paid off the mortgage on the farm and hired Neil Henry McLeod to build a new house on the road.

Frances died the 5th of June 1955 in Harnett County and is buried at Cumberland Union Church with Joseph Earlie.

Joseph married Frances Elizabeth Dean on 24 Feb 1909 in Buckhorn Township, Harnett Co., North Carolina. Frances (daughter of William Parker Dean and Elizabeth J. Wilson) was born on 12 Aug 1885 in Buckhorn Township, Harnett Co, North Carolina; died on 5 Jun 1955 in Fuquay Springs, Buckhorn Township, Harnett Co., North Carolina; was buried in Cumberland Union Baptist Church Cemetery, Harnett Co., North Carolina.

Esther's father , Luther Barbour, was a preacher and founder of St.Delight Church. He drove a horse and buggy to Church. He was a guest speaker at Red Hill Church in June of 1925. Esther went with him, that is how she met James. James said " I was dating someone else then -
just to pass the time - I don't remember who it was. I dated them both at the same time. I asked the other girl to marry me and she said no, so I asked Esther. She said yes."
