Ori married Myra Taylor at St. Mary's Church, Oldswinford:
28-05-1855 Ori Baker, 19, bachelor, Chainmaker of The Lye, son of Elijah Baker, Sheet Iron Roller, m. Myra Taylor, 20, spinster of The Lye, daughter of Richard Taylor, Nailmaker. By Banns. Both signed name. Wits: David Pearson & Jane Hazlewood.

Myra died 3 months later and is buried at St. Mary's Church, Oldswinford:
26-08-1855 Mira Baker, Waste, 20

Ori then married again, also at St. Mary's Church, Oldswinford:
25-12-1862 Ori Baker, 24, bachelor, Chainmaker of The Lye, son of Elijah Baker, Boiler Plate Roller, m. Kezia Dunn, 21, spinster of The Lye, daughter of Frederick Dunn, Nailmaker. By Banns. Neither made mark. Wits: George Partridge & Mary Dunn.

Ori followed in his father's footsteps, being convicted of felony in 1863, manslaughter in 1864 and GBH in 1866. :roll: He received a prison term of 7 years for GBH and was in the Male Convict Prison at Gillingham in Kent in 1871:
Male Convict Prison, Gillingham, Kent
Ori Baker, Convict, M, 34, Chainmaker, Stourbridge

I believe he emigrated to USA round about 1875 and appears in the 1880 census for Pennsylvania.

Zeri married Martha Gauden at Holy Trinity Church, Ambelcote:
25-12-1860 Zeri Baker, 23, bachelor, Hammer maker of Ambelcote, son of Elijah Baker, Roller, m. Martha Gauden, 22, spinster of Ambelcote, daughter of Thomas Gauden, Miner. By Banns. Both made mark. Wits: William & Ester Davis.

Martha died aged 13 and is buried at St. Mary's Church, Oldswinford:
22-04-1860 Martha Baker, Waste, 13

I know nothing about Mary except that she was aged 1 in the 1841 census so she may have died young too.
