The Portland Observer, Thursday, March 9, 1922
Omar Baker, a well known and highly esteemed resident of Sebewa, passed away 
suddenly at his home in that village, Saturday morning at 7:15 o’clock.  Mr. 
baker had been ailing for some time, but had worked nearly every day during 
the winter.  Although he was born and raised in Ohio, he had adopted Michigan 
as his home and had resided here for over 20 years.  

From an early marriage with an Ohio girl, he is survived by a daughter, Grace 
Fewell, who still resides in that state and a son, Earl, whose whereabouts are 
unknown.  Eighteen years ago he was married to Mrs. Mary Felton who also 
survives him.  Other relatives are a brother, Chester Baker of Ohio and a 
nephew, Archie Baughman of Battle Creek.  Ralph Felton of Grand Rapids is a 
step-son.

Mr. Baker was a member of the Sebewa M. E. church and of the Sebewa I.O.O.F. 
lodge.  

The funeral was held at the church Tuesday afternoon with Rev. Thayer 
officiating.  Burial was made in Danby cemetery.
