Ole C Baker born: 14 Apr 1846 his obit states born in Tyn Norway. He came to America in 1850 with his parents at abt age 4. He came with 3 sisters and 1 brother. One sister here in the US (His Obit) states her name was Julia. Ole died in 1924 and she was the only survivor mentioned. His obit here in the US states that he was left an Orphan when he was 8 years old after they came to America and at 9 years old he was left to make it in the world on his own. I found him in a 1860 US Census working as a farm hand on a farm. He ended up being a very successful farmer in the area. Could be the other siblings died before he did or they all left the area and never had more contact with each other. Thanks, Jodie
