2014-Mary Kennett and Brett Thomas Baker contacted me; Mary says "her mother" and Betty Baker (1904-1984) were not only friends but also cousins; Brett is descended from Grandpa Tom's brother Martin Reno Baker. It also appears that Martin and Thomas Jefferson were family names starting with the first Martin in 1700; to William Baker in 1740 to Thomas Baker in 1769 to Martin Baker in 1795; to Thomas Baker in 1829; to Martin Baker in 1862 to our Thomas, Martin and Elizabeth (Betty)
