Other members of the Baker family buried there but no markers.
There are also slaves buried in a cemetery back of the family lot.
Another burial, that of a stranger, was permitted by the Baker family at the request of the husband who operated a produce boat on the Licking River between towns and Cincinnati, Ohio. Frequently he and his wife had spoken of the beauty of this location and would always stop and put flowers on her grave.

"The virtues of an amicable and affectionate wife claims this
tribute of affections from a disconsolate husband who
trusts her soul rests in heaven."
