George Peter Baker George Peter Baker was born in Germany. Historians list a number of towns or areas as the Baker residence as follows: a resident of Alsace Lorraine, Bavaria, and, in the Ruhr Valley some 3 miles West of Strasbourg. Of those particulars we have no definitive answer. However, on Monday, September 25, 1753, the Ship Peggy, having sailed from Rotterdam, The Netherlands, and commanded by Captain James Abercrombie, landed at the Port of Philadelphia. On passenger list 204B and 204C was the name of GEORGE BAKER. From the period August 25, 1751 to October 1, 1754, the passenger lists of Germans entering the Port of Philadelphia records thirteen Bakers but only one (1) GEORGE BAKER. In fact, during the year 1753 nineteen ships carrying Germans entered the Port of Philadelphia but among the passenger lists there was only one (1) GEORGE BAKER.
