!SOURCE: Email from Christopher Congdon (email hidden) to the Whipple Website, 25 Apr 2011. Notes the following:- By the 1900 Census, Mary is living with Walter & Lena Whipple and is listed as a widow.
- The 1900 Census for Walter A Whipple and Lena M Whipple would seem to indicate that this is the correct family as Walter's mother-in-law Mary B Young is living with them.
!SOURCE: Email from Christopher Congdon to Weldon Whipple, 9 May 2011: "According to [daughter] Lena's death record (Rhode Island Deaths and Burials, 1802-1950 www.familysearch.org), her mother was Mary Baker, born in Massachusetts."
!SOURCE: Email from Christopher Congdon to Weldon Whipple, 9 May 2011. Daughter Nellie's death record gives Mary's birthplace as England.
!SOURCE: Email from Christopher Congdon to Weldon Whipple, 9 May 2011. Daughter Frances' birth record gives Mary's birth in Yarmouth.
!SOURCE: Email from Christopher Congdon to Weldon Whipple, 9 May 2011. Cites/notes the following:- Barnstable County Census for 1855 has a Mary B Baker living in Yarmouth. She is 13 years old and born in Yarmouth. The age would be for someone born circa 1842. The nuisance is that ancestry.com doesn't have this record linked to her family and no original image to view.
- But that leads us to the 1850 Census for Yarmouth gives us:
- Jeremiah Baker born c1810 Massachusetts
- Susan Baker born c1819 Massachusetts
- Children:
- Jacob B born c1838 Massachusetts
- Benjamin born c1840 Massachusetts
- Mary B Baker born c1842 Massachusetts
- Susan born c1846 Massachusetts
- Georgeanna born c1849 Massachusetts
- And that leads us finally to: Massachusetts Births and Christenings, 1639-1915
- Mary B Baker
- Female
- Day: 29 Sep 1841
- Place: Yarmouth, Barnstable, MA
- Father: Jeremiah Baker
- Mother: Susan
- And that comes full circle to the 1900 Federal Census for Walter A Whipple, Lena M Whipple, and Walter's Mother-in-law Mary B Young in which it is stated that she was born Sep 1841 in MA.
!SOURCE: Email from Christopher Congdon to Weldon Whipple, 10 May 2011. Cites the 1 Jun 1905 RI Census, which lists Mary as widowed, living in Providence, Rhode Island.
