“For there was a time when every
man was a part of his mother, and (earlier still) part of his father as well:
and when they were part of his grandparents. If you could see the humanity
spread out in time, as God sees it, it would not look like a lot of separate
things dotted about. It would look like one single growing thing - rather like a very complete tree.
Every individual would appear connected with every other. And
not only that. Individuals are not really separate from God any more
than from one another. Every man, woman, and child all over
the world is feeling and breathing at this moment only because God, so to
speak, is ‘keeping him going.”

“We
All Do Fade As A Leaf”
Majestic
tree, thy beauty shines
In
budding spring and summer green:
But
autumn brings thy blushing smile,
Surpassing
all before had been.
Cold
blasts will strip thee of thy robe,
And
bring thy beauty to the ground,
But
fallen leaves enrich the earth
That
yet a larger life be found.
Teach
me the way that I should live,
Filling
each day with duty done;
Let
passing years my ripeness prove,
Tho’ life as yet is just begun.
Autumn
of years, while vigor fails,
Brings
fitness for the life to be;
Then
welcome winter, frost and snow;
Beyond,
another spring I see.

An updated genealogy of Nicholas Baker
Nicholas Baker married Martha Wood,
Nicholas came to
I have found no evidence, and have no reason to believe, that Maurice Baker is the father
of this Nicholas Baker. One should
beware of genealogies declaring that Maurice Baker is the father of Nicholas
Baker (husband of Martha Wood) who resided in Baltimore/Harford Co., MD in the
mid 1700s.
Also in error are genealogies that state
Nicholas Baker’s son, Nicholas Jr., married Mary Stevens. He married Agnes
(surname unknown).

Baltimore/Harford Co., MD

“No proof of relationship of the Nicholas Baker family with the other
Bakers outside of the Carsins Run- Aberdeen area has
yet been unearthed.”
“Nicholas in 1737 was apparently living in the part of Spesutia Upper Hundred which became Susquehanna Hundred.
In 1768, he was described as a planter when he leased the 125 acre
tract of ‘Halls Plaines,’ where he was living, from
William Horton for ten years. He died sometime before May 1774, when his estate was
opened.”
