On the right, are Fannie Farrar and William John Draker. known as John and Fannie Baker. Wait a minute you say, Farrar and Draker, where did the Baker come from? Well my Grandfather who I will from now on refer to as John Baker ran away from home in Hamilton, Canada sometime around the age of 9. He was born in Colden, NY so he made his way to the US and ended up in Ellicottville, NY. There he was taken in and raised by a family named Gogel and he went by the name of John William Baker. Fannie�s grandparents came to the United States from Lancashire, England sometime around 1830 and settled in the Portland, NY area.
