Mary Baker Eddy – better Monitor this

MaryBakerEddy

Mary Baker Eddy, the founder of the Christian Science movement, is reported to be my 6th cousin, 4 times removed in # 407 through our MRCA, Elizabeth Dunckley (1576-1657), the 3 times great grandmother of Esther Clark, my 4 times great grandmother and the furthest documented ancestor I have in that lineage.    Many months ago, in # 161, We’re Related showed Mary as my 7th cousin, 4 times removed, through our MRCA, John Baker (1576-1594), the great great grandfather of Dinah Harris (1702-1796), my 6 times great grandmother and the furthest documented ancestor I have in that lineage.  For Mary, both lines trace up through her father (#161 is a straight paternal Baker line) and #407 merges at Mary’s great grandparents: Hannah Lovewell (1721-1790)-Joseph Baker (1714-1771) and then follows Hannah’s lineage up.  Either way, there is a lot more research to make this connection.

Genealogist / Family Historian; Blog started as a record of my Grandfather's post card collection which ran for 15 months. Then, in June, 2017, I changed over to reporting and commenting on notifications from the ANCESTRY app "We're Related" I then started to provide snippets into ancestor biographies on the dates that were significant anniversaries.
