==Henry W. Baker==

Henry William Baker was born on February 10, 1833, in Richmond, Ontario County, New York.〔(Paul Leake, ''History of Detroit,'' ) 1912, Vol. 3, pp. 1193-1195.〕 In 1842, his parents Samuel and Maria moved to Michigan, settling on a farm two-and-a-half miles west of Plymouth known as Cooper's Corners. Henry was the eldest of ten children; brothers Chauncey Elbridge, Oscar Nathaniel and Samuel Valentine, with sisters, Carolina Adelia Bennett, Janette "Nettie" Vrooman, Marietta "Mate" Hough, Frank Libby Adams, Anna Maria and Jennie L. Chadwick. H.W. Baker studied photography, and during the Civil War worked as a photographer in Ypsilanti, Michigan with his cousin, Edwin P. Baker. In 1866 he returned to Plymouth and entered into business. Mr. Baker was the Justice of the Peace for the Village of Plymouth in 1876.〔 In 1882, he partnered with Mike Conner, Oscar A. Fraser, Calvin B. Crosby, Roswell Lincoln Root, S.J. Springer, David D. Allen, the Hon. Orlando R. Pattengell, brother-in-law, Lewis Cass Hough, J.P. Woodard, Theodore C. Sherwood, and inventor Clarence J. Hamilton, to flower the Plymouth Iron Windmill Company, of which Baker was President in the years 1887-88.〔 Manufacturing Windmills was more or less successful, but in 1888 the company introduced the metal Daisy Air Rifle, which was also a Clarence Hamilton design, and moved prosperously away from the production of Windmills. In 1895, the company changed its name to the Daisy Manufacturing Company, and built an immense business in the manufacture of Air Rifles. Henry W. Baker was President of the firm from 1895 till the time of his death, at which point his nephew, Charles H."Mr. Plymouth" Bennett, took control of the firm. In 1904, Mr. Baker joined by his sister Caroline Bennett, along with his business partners within the Daisy Firm took the initial stock offering of the Ford Motor Company of Canada.〔
Baker was married twice: first to Flora Bromsfield, then to Angeline C. Myers.〔 His house was contemporaneously described as "a beautiful home; a costly brick structure."〔 H.W. Baker died at home, Monday November 24th, 1919.〔
