Notes

Birth of George Frederick Baker in FreeBMD in April-June 1879 in Headington (3a 703) which included Oxford.

In the 1881 census as George F Baker aged 1, born in Oxford, and living with his parents (George A and Annie B), sister (Edith C), two apprentice watchmakers (Herbert E Cope aged 19, born in Lichfield, Staffordshire, and single and Alfred R Taylor aged 16 and born in Piccadily, London) and a servant (Alice Vinnell aged 20, born in Doulting, Somerset and single) at 29 St Giles West, Oxford St Giles, Oxfordshire.

In the 1891 census as G F Baker aged 11, born in Gloucestershire, and a vistor with Thomas Palmer (aged 58, born in Gloucestershire and a farmer), his wife (Ellen aged 62 and born in Oxfordshire), their two sons (F J aged 35, and H T S aged 19, both born in Gloucestershire, single and farmer's sons) and a servant (Mannie Devarona aged 73 (could be 13 on the original), born in Gloucestershire and single) at Griffins Farm, Tibberton, Gloucestershire.

In the 1901 census as George F Baker aged 21, born in Oxford, employed as a jewellers assistant working at home, and living with his two brothers (Alfred R and Walter), three sisters (Annie J, Edith C and Nellie J), a visitor (Jefferies Pitt aged 21, born in Ebby Stroud, Gloucestershire, single, and employed as a drapers assistant) and a servant (Florence A Grainger aged 18, born in Gloucester, and single) in Alexander Road, Gloucester St Nicholas, Gloucestershire. Note that there is no head of household - I assume his parents were just visiting his uncle Alfred and family at 3 Stensham Hill, Moseley, Kings Norton, Worcestershire.
