** JOHN (TENERENTTA [on Ancestry they aka Renta / Renty) BAKER SON OF THE PATRIARCH ANDREW BAKER SR.,
THIS IS THE CORRECT CEMETERY not Cortland and thanks to William Gabbard, Marion Abner and Tom Barrett from the Owsley County Historical Society and many years of Baker research, it has been determined beyond speculation, he is buried here.
** (2 more incorrect memorials have recently been added - they are using the headstone from Courtland that are incorrect in date and participation in the Revolutionary War.
The headstone removed from Cortland Cemetery recently placed here, is still incorrect, a new one needs to replace it with the correct information for his date of birth and death AND No documentation has ever been located that conclusively proves John Baker was a Revolutionary War soldier as his brothers, Private Reverend Andrew Baker, born 1749 (DAR Patriot #A004862) wife Elizabeth Avant; Private Bolin Bake (DAR Patriot #A004878) wife Patsy Morris and Captain George Baker (DAR Patriot #A004927) wife Susannah Morris, and son Robert "Bob" Baker. Nor did John own land that would have typically been given as a Land Warrant for military service.
This Cemetery formerly called the Abner-Bishop Cemetery is located on the north side of Bishop Bend Road, past Right Fork of Buffalo Road, Owsley County, Kentucky, 41721. The coordinates are 37.354263, -83.641716. There are several reliable sites you can research this lineage, Three Forks of the Kentucky River Historical Association www.tfkrha.org , the bakerdna.org , Yahoo Groups Descendants of Andrew Baker Sr . , The Baker DNA site, and others.
John, son of the Patriarch Andrew Baker Sr. and Mary Baker; was the brother of at least the following; Reverend Andrew Baker Jr. , Captain Reverend George Baker, Bolin Baker, James Baker, Morris Baker, Sr., Leonard, Elijah, and Joseph;
John, husband of Elizabeth (Last name Terrill has never been proven, neither do dates or locations coincide), and many children. (I will list at a later date) and father to the child known as Ipha Baker Harrison, mother possibly Agatha Williams but not documented. DNA does not support a connection to Native American ancestry for John Baker whose ethnicity proves to be of British descent; Ipha Baker - Harrison may or may not be at least 1/4 if any, but no documentation on her maternal side has been found to date.
( I will enter the information when it becomes available)
PLEASE DO NOT CONNECT ANY SPOUSE OR CHILDREN TO THIS MEMORIAL!! Thank you. Our duty to the lineage of this Baker family is to find ACCURATE information and not speculation.
***Admins, PLEASE do not merge the existing John Baker memorial by Maintained by: 47117651, originally created by Kelly Nixon and moved from a different Cemetery to this one, or any by Richard Wayne Baker memorials to this - as their memorials are grossly inaccurate and undocumented! Thank you.
*** The image someone attached to this memorial is not this John Baker, it is a random picture copied from Ancestry!JOHN BAKER 1735-1820 WAS NOT BURIED IN THIS CEMETERY.
The Colonel John Baker associated with Kings Mountain was a German and one of the Overmountain Men.
This headstone has been moved from another cemetery - it did not belong in that one either.

John Renta Baker was not a Revolutionary War soldier, there is no documented evidence to prove he was, although several of his sons, and brothers were. (more information to follow on his location at this period of time - he was a longhunter and had gone west)
Note: The photo included by Alice P. and on other sites by various people, labeled as J. Baker IS NOT JOHN BAKER. Photography in America did not exist in his lifetime! The first know photo was created March 1840, a Daguerrotype produced in Vienna, not America.
