• Notes

  Wikitree 2022 by Judy Russell</line><line /><line>"Frequently, those who claim to descend from the Alexander and Elizabeth Baker who emigrated to Boston in 1635 on the ship Elizabeth and Ann identify Elizabeth as Elizabeth Farrar and Alexander as the son of another Alexander Baker, who married (1) Alice, a daughter of Edward Jervys and (2) Frances, a daughter of Michael Grigg and widow of Francis Pendleton, and as the grandson of George and Anne Swayne Baker. An authoritative abstract of the records of baptisms, marriages and burials at Westminster Abbey in London disproves that theory (and thus calls into question the entire Alexander Baker story).</line><line /><line>The source is Joseph Lemuel Chester, The Marriage, Baptismal and Burial Registers of the Collegiate Church or Abbey of St. Peter, Westminster (Harleian Society, 1876). The book is regarded as authoritative by no less than the writers of the website of Westminster Abbey itself:
