The hand pump is located in a newer section of the Dauphin Cemetery. I was manufactured by Baker Mfg. of Evansville, Wisconsin and installed at this location in 1937. I gave the handle a few pumps, it functions like it should mechanically, I couldn't draw any water. It may need primed.

Baker Manufacturing Company still in business was founded in 1873. The company operates from a single site, multi-building facility located in Evansville, WI. < Baker>
