Baker Moore connection
bakern
I am trying to connect Ernest and Annie Baker from Castleford Yorks to the family of Henry Moore the sculptor. I believe his mother was a Baker making them cousins. Has anyone got info. on this please?

noggin on 2013-10-18 07:17:35Henry Spencer Moore was born on 30 Jul 1898 in Castleford, West Yorkshire to Mary Baker & Raymond Spencer Moore. They married in 1885.
Raymond Spencer Moore was born in Owston, Lincoln, England believed to be of Irish origin
Mary was born in Burntwood, Staffordshire
If Ernest and Annie Baker's family originate from Staffordshire there may be a connection

William 1829 Coal Miner Wyrley, Staffordshire
Mary 1827 Coal Miners Wife Walsall, Staffordshire
Jane 1849 ScholarWalsall, Staffordshire
Hannah 1855 Scholar Burntwood, Staffordshire
Mary 1858 Scholar Burntwood, Staffordshire
William 1860 Burntwood, Staffordshire
Lucy 1861 Burntwood, Staffordshire
This looks like Mary and her family in Staffordshire
Her father is a miner which perhaps why she ended up in Yorkshire
