2. Per photos of tombstone inscriptions provided to me by Rea Jenkins 19 Jan 2011:
-"Eula D. Cooper, Jan. 26, 1875 - Feb. 7, 1959."
-"John F. Baker, Died Feb. 28, 1890, aged 49 yrs. 7 mos. 8 ds. Native of Mass. Susan Jane, wife of J.F. Baker, died Feb. 14, 1903, aged 55 yrs., 11 mos. 8 days. Native of Illinois. At Rest." [Tombstone clearly gives John's death as 28 Feb, which then makes his birth date 20 Jul 1840, both of which are at variance to what dates I have been using.]
-Military tombstone: "William Elmer Baker, California, ___ Am. Service, August 30, 1932."
