I have received a copy of the death Cert. for my gg gfather Charles Wilson Baker; he died in Jan.1845 and his occupation was 'comedian'. As per a tip on this board I emailed the theatre museum for any info they could give me and they said they had found an obit. for a Charles Baker, Comedian who died 26th November 1844. So his obit appeared some months before he died - or what? Rosi.
