Joseph Baker, age 60, an old settler in the Indian country near Mayetta, died Saturday at his home in Mayetta. He came to Kansas from Missouri about thirty years ago. He is survived by three daughters, Mrs. Frank Huey, Mrs. James Mummert, and Mrs. H. N. Lower, and a son, Hugh Baker, all of Topeka. The Topeka State Journal, December 19, 1921.
The sad news went over our town Saturday afternoon about 1:30 o'clock that Joe Baker had passed away at his home in the north part of town. The news was very surprising, as no one but his close neighbors and some of his relatives knew that he was ailing at all. As near as we can learn, the cause of his death was blood poison.
Joe Baker was born in Missouri 58 years, 6 months and 26 days ago. He came to Kansas about thirty years ago and he was well known all over this neighborhood and was a very hard working man and believed in everything that was good and right. He will be greatly missed at home and elsewhere. A short funeral service was held at the home on Sunday, December 18, 1921, at 2:30, conducted by Rev. Morris. He leaves a widow, three daughters and one son. After the funeral service he was laid to rest in the Mayetta cemetery. The Holton Recorder, December 21, 1921.
