Married 1884. The Geelong Advertiser, October 31, 1921. AIREY'S INLET. Quite a gloom was cast over the district on Saturday when it became known that Mrs. Richard Baker had passed away. Mr. and Mrs. Baker had lived for several years at the Split Point Lighthouse, and during that period were extremely popular with the residents and visitors to the district. Mrs. Baker was a highly cultured lady and took a very keen interest in social affairs. No local entertainment seemed complete without her presence. Since her removal from Airey's Inlet, Mrs. Baker had resided in Melbourne as her state of health rendered it impossible for her to accompany her husband to Cape Schanck, where he was in charge of the lighthouse station. Mrs. Baker leaves a family of four girls and four boys.
