I think Sarah aka Sallie or Sally BAKER may have been the daughter of Elias BAKER and Sarah HOLBROOK. The birth date matches exactly to the Sarah BAKER listed in the Revolutionary War Pension Application for Elias BAKER and her name is listed in Book I of "THE BAKER FAMILIES ALONG THE GAARTX TRAIL" by: J. M. and Velma Baker. I hope someday that someone can prove this assumption to be true. Until then, use this relationship as circumstantial but not factual.

Is this our Silas?

We do not know where Silas is buried. Perhaps on his own property?
