  from "The Springfield Republican", 12 Jul 1941 (genealogybank.com) JOHN F. BAKER DIED AT THE AGE OF 86 Orange, July 11 - John F. Baker, 86, died Thursday morning at this home on the Warwick road after a short illness. He was a native of Livermore Falls, Me., the son of James and Elizabeth Glass Baker, and came to Warwick 45 years ago. He formerly ran a lumber business and in recent years had operated a successful farm. Mr. Baker was a prudent and hard working man and his large and well arranged wood pile was the envy of all who passed. He leaves his widow, Mrs. Cora B. Baker; five daughters, Mrs. S.W. Blake of Warwick, Misses Blanche and Mildred Baker of Pittsburg, Pa., Mrs Charles MacKay of San Francisco, Cal., and Mrs. N.H. Perley of Fitchburg, and a son, Harry R. Baker of Athol. The funeral will be held Sunday afternoon at 2 in the Higgins funeral home, Orange.
