Marriage License28 March 1843Jane Baker and Andrew Bishop obtained a marriage license on 28 March 1843 in Clay County, Kentucky. Research Comment by Wanda Hunter Day: The license indicates "Conscent of parrents of Ginna personally given." However, to date, I have not located a copy of the marriage consent.1

She was enumerated in the 1900 census as Jinney Bishop in the household of son William Bishop. I have found no additional records for Jane Baker after this census.4,5 [*Although the census taker recorded the household on 12 Jun 1900, official instructions were to enumerate the household as it existed on 01 Jun 1900.]
