From the little information I can find for Pvt. Baker, it appears he was born in Prussia, then immigrated to Pennsylvania. While living there he became a soldier and fought in the Revolutionary War. Somewhere along the line he ended up in Ohio, and was buried here.

Christian was born in 1765, and died in 1834. From the looks of it he was given a new headstone. I assume the old one was in poor condition and replaced.
