Notes:
In the personal property lists, starting in 1793, I see John Baker and George Baker with son William in the neighborhood and not yet attached to a family here.
Birth:
Personal property tax was generally collected on males older than 21. Since William is paying tax in 1785. Tax would have been assessed for the year he turned 21 and then paid the next year. So, born in 1763 or earlier. At that time, the part of Mecklenburg where the Bakers lived was Lunenburg.
