Bake Family of Dacre, Yorkshire, Eng to Westmoreland Co., PA

KFAYEO — 7 Jun 2005 1:07:30 GMT

I am direct descendant of Gilbert (b.1772) and Jane Myers(b.1773) Bake of Dacre, though their son William (b. 1805) and Sarah Bake, through their son Gilbert (b.1833) and Susannah Gilmore Bake. Gilbert Sr. family came to PA. in 1831 with 4 sons; daughter Jane Bake Addyman (b. 1802, m. John Addyman, 2 sons, 1dau) stayed behind in Dacre York.
I have put the will of Gilbert Sr.(d. PA c.1849) in a Word Document which I'm happy to share. Also I have visted Dacre and the church where they were members (have never seen reference to it being Quaker, just "Independent" in all the church records) and where daughter Jane B. Addyman and her family are buried.
After father Gilbert died c.1849, one son (Gilbert Bake b. 1799)) went to Ohio; Joseph M.(b. 1815) and Rebecca Sampson Bake ( 8 children) were in Niagara, Ontario in 1881 Canadian Census; Mother Jane Myers Bake lived with William and Sarah Bake in 1850 Rostraver Twp, Westmrld Co., PA. census and died before 1860 census. Son John Bake (b. 1807) may never have married and lived with William's family, both died in Pa. I know very little about the 11 children of William and Sarah, except for my great grandfather Gilbert whose Family Bible I have.
Happy to share any info I have and happy to receive what I don't yet have!

John Bake of Manchester, England

Leslie Ann — 25 Oct 2006 2:26:04 GMT

I am hoping to connect with someone who is working on the Bake Family from Manchester, England. John Bake was b abt 1795 and was married to Elizabeth Needham.

John Bake must have came to the US some time in the 1830's or 1840's. He spent some time around Monongahela, Pennslyvania. He went out at west at some point and was never heard of again.

I only know of one child, Henry Needham Bake who was born in Bollington, Cheshire, England 1826. He married Sarah Mathias abt 1850/51. They lived in the Pittsburg area for a while.

Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Leslie

Bake-Bergen ancestors

Cynthia Zimpel — 24 Aug 2001 9:07:59 GMT

My ggrandmother was Mary Hannah Bergen (born 1853) who married Francis Walter Hugh Bake - born 1859 - (not sure if that was in Australia as I can't find a record for this marriage in Australia). They lived at Hill End, New South Wales, Australia and had children - Walter, Mary Alice, Ernest, William, Christina and Augusta. I am told that Francis' father was a sailor from Scotland, who came to Australia at one time with a load of silk from China. Maybe he liked it so much he talked about it back home and his son decided to settle here. Christina married my grandfather, Harold Olman Mackney at Coff's Harbour in 1914. Can someone help me with any information on my ancestors along this line?

Julia Ann Bake

I am looking for more info about Julia Ann Bake (1833-1902), who I believe married Cyrus L. Buck in 1862. Far as I can tell, her father was Jeremiah Bake. It looks like she was born in Ohio and eventually moved to Illinois. Does anyone have any more info?

Yorkshire, Pennsylvania, Ohio Bake Families

Earl Allan Bake — 9 Aug 2000 6:27:07 GMT

My branch of the family descends from Gilbert Jane Bake, Quakers who immigrated from Yorkshire, England, in 1831 with 4 sons (Gilbert, William, John, and Joseph). They settled in Westmorelamd County, PA, but many of them moved west to Jefferson County, OH in the late 1800s. I am searching for information on ancestors and siblings of Gilbert Bake in Yorkshire and on related immigrant families.
