    Notes:

    [Brøderbund WFT Vol. 7, Ed. 1, Tree #0173, ]

    Solon Baker, Minnie's father, was born in Wake County, North Carolina, July 17, 1869. He was the son of Richard Sanders Baker of Wake County, North Carolina and Elizabeth (Bettie) Margaret Baker of Franklin County, North Carolina. The oldest child of Richard and Bettie died at age 3; so Solon was the oldest living child. I do not Know what age he left home. He was evidently well liked by Charlie R. Baker (Mary Simon Baker's brother), because he signed his will. Solon must have been about 23 years old at the time. So far as I know now, they were two different sets of Bakers. Solon Baker married Mary Simon Baker on July 21, 1894. Minnie was born July 13,1895. Mary Simon died September 15, 1903. Solon married Mance Perry (on Marriage Register Mencie and on Census Mancy) on December 16, 1903. They had two children - Alma Radah Baker and Willie Mae Baker. The 1910 Census shows Mance back in her father's home and Willie Mae (age 2) with her. Since completing the history, I have found that Solon Baker and Mance were divorced in October 1910. Solon Baker and Minnie raises Alma. The 1910 Census showed Mance (married 5 years). On March 4, 1913 he married Artelia Martin. Minnie was almost 18 years old and Alma was about 8 1/2 years old. Artelia died on June 17, 1936.

    Solon Baker had lots of friends and was well liked in the community. He loved his children and grandchildren. Solon was a successful farmer. His granddaughter (Ada Eugenia Lockleair Perry) went with him to the tobacco market. She related how the market people would say "Come on, this is Solon Baker's tobacco! Give us a good price." I remember when I was just a child (he died when I was only 11 years old) that he always had the prettiest tomatoes (beefsteak) and watermelons. The scuppernong were much better than the ones on our vines. When he was in his seventies, his delight was to work in his garden and see it grow (a large one he did not need). Grandpa Solon liked to fish and would go on his fishing trips with the best people of the area. George Duke, a wealthy land owner and Cliff Daniels, owner of Zebulon Drug Store were two of those men.

    He was (according to Aunt Alma) in politics and was chairman of the Democratic Party, for Little River Township, for 20 years. While he was chairman, he never had a candidate running for office who lost. He was also an active Mason for many years.

    One thing I remember is when I was very little, he would take me to the store. If I was asleep, Minnie, my mother, had to wake me up so I could go. As I grew a little older, Alice would go. There was always a bag of candy for us.
