John Law Baker
Person Male Born 20/1/1789 Died 28/9/1886
Of the Madras Army. Misty's flickr page has some useful information. It pointed us to National Archives which corroborated our guess that our JLB is the father of Lawrence James Baker, English stockbroker and Liberal MP, who was born in London in 1828. It seems likely that LJB, as a pillar of the community, erected the memorial fountain to his father. (Note: JLB's birth year is disputed, either 1789 or 1790.)
