JUDGE CALEB BAKER WALLACE, of the SUPREME COURT of KENTUCKY, was a son of SAMUEL WALLACE (JR.) and his wife ESTHER BAKER. Caleb Baker WALLACE was born in AMELIA CO. Virginia, and raised in CHARLOTTE County, Virginia, the birth date being 1742. Sept. 20, ??48, after his marriage to ESTHER BAKER, SAMUEL WALLACE p??ted 2017 acrers on land in the "BUFFALO SECTION" of what afterwards was part of PRINCE EDWARD COUNTY, Virginia. In 1772 he moved to what is now Charlotte County and in 1782 removed to Kentucky, where his son CALEB BAKER WALLACE had migrated and settled, and helped to draw a new Constitution of that State. Two sisters of ESTHER BAKER were married to two brothers, MARTHA BAKER to CHARLES EWING and MARY BAKER to ROBERT EWING; also no less than three of her uncles had married daughters of REV. JOHN THOMPSON, a noted early Presbyterian minister, viz: SAMUEL BAKER married ELIZABETH THOMPSON; ROBERT BAKER, JR. married MARY THOMPSON, and DOUGLAS BAKER married to JANE THOMPSON. Both the Bakers & the EWINGS came to Virginia from NEW CONNAUGHT (the GEORGE TALBOT Survey of Cecil County, Maryland) and New Munster - where they had been neighbors of MATTHEW WALLACE and his tribe. Also, the REV. JOHN THOMPSON had for several yrs ministered to the Presbyterians of CHESNUT LEVEL, a small place in what is now in the lower part of Chester County, Pennsylvania, but which was at that time considered in CECIL COUNTY, MARYLAND, SAMUEL WALLACE, (JR.) died in KENTUCKY at an advanced age

Concerning The Bakers and Rev. Thomson-Rev John Thomson died 1753 and was buried behind his son-in-law's house-Samuel Baker-who was married to Elizabeth. Samuel died 1757 and was also buried there. Samuel was brother to Caleb and Robert JR. The original location for the cem was covered by Lake Norman but the remains of all there were moved to Centre Presb. Church cem north of Charlotte on I-77 near Mt Mourne (can be seen from I-77). All the graves that were moved from the Baker cem are in the back left side. Samuel is the only known Baker buried in the original cem, as all his brothers died in VA.
