Father Divine profile tied to Georgia roots and New York era
The piece traces Father Divine, born George Baker near Savannah River circa 1880, to early work as a gardener, revivalist preacher, and Sayville founder who built a communal living church. It notes his 1932 Sayville raid, a judge’s sentence then death, the later Philadelphia move in 1952, and quirky finds like two cents and bobby pins from a dining room.
