Richard and Margaret (Elkes) Baker of Hoxton, Shropshire

It seems probable that Richard Baker of Shropshire who married Margaret Elkes in 1603 has no connection to Joice Baker who was married 240 miles away in Ashford in 1624.

There are sources for a Richard and Margaret Baker Great Ness, so this profile and his wife's could be disconnected and continue to represent that couple.
