From then on the name would have stuck although the trade may have changed. Danny Baker’s Story starts in modern times, about 1800, with Charles John Baker, who was in Her Majesty’s Service in Windsor Berkshire. His son Robert William Baker was born in 1833 at Windsor, and became an apprentice Chemist, moving to London to take up his trade, with a Scotsman, Robert Watson, in Hanover Square, Westminster. He was to continue in this trade for the rest of his life so spent at least 40 years as a Chemist and Druggist. The rest of the family’s journey can be seen in the pages below.
