Help on finding my 6th Great-Grandparents.

I need help finding the parents of my paternal 5th great-grandfather Moses Baker 9MZ6-PNR.

Any tips or help would be gratefully appreciated. Thank you.

@Chase8260 Here's what Full-Text Search found——

Baker Moses

Quite a bit there that looks like Moses but deals with mostly after arriving in Texas. I'll add a few other things I found directly to his PID…

Hi @Chase8260. If Moses Baker was indeed born in Tennessee, it looks like that state didn't start keeping birth records until many years later. Unfortunately, Texas also wasn't recording deaths at the time when he died. However, you could try posting to this group https://community.familysearch.org/en/group/174-southern-states-research who may be able to provide some other research avenues for you.

Also, have you seen Moses' WikiTree page?: https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Baker-17372

There's some family information on there, as well as DNA connections who could possibly have more information on what research efforts have previously been made.
