Note: With Williams' sons, Robert and James' kids confusing whether thier dadswere born in NC or in SC I would say they were born in NC and moved to SC as small boys. SC was where Rebecca
Baker was born. Ananias Boatright was from Chesterfield County, South Carolina and Timothy
Anderson who was on a indenture with William Baker below. Timothy Anderson was from Rowan Co,
N.C. and moved to Lancaster County, SC. which was next to Chesterfield Co. So I would say
that these two Counties in SC was where our William Baker was from before Montgomery Co. Tn.
William was also possibly from Rowan Co. NC and moved to SC after the Revolutionary War at
the same time as did Timothy Anderson. Timothy was living in Jersey Settlement of Rowan County,
North Carolina. He came from New Jersey to NC. Timothy Anderson son of Cornelius Anderson from
Hopewell,Hunterdon, New Jersey.
