Biography
Alpheus BAKER. [1]
Alphas Baker (1780-1857), who was born at Athol, Massachusetts — the son of Sherebiah and Clotilda (Daniels) Baker. Alpheus was a Dartmouth College classmate of Daniel Webster in the graduating class of 1801. Afterward, he went to Barlow County, Alabama where he found employment as a teacher. He somehow obtained a fortune, possibly through his marriage in 1820 to Eliza H. Courtney (1800-18xx), a native of Ireland, and retired to the Clover Hill Plantation in Abbeville County, South Carolina in 1820. Alpheus’ first wife was the daughter of Capt. Dennis of Newport, Rhode Island, who was the mother of Fisher A. Baker. [2]
