Baker heirs eye billion dollar Philadelphia estate claims
Chicago man Myron C Baker claims lineage to Colonel Jacob Baker and vows to prove footnotes in genealogical records. Philadelphia officials reject any 800 million to 1 billion dollar lease or real estate transfer, noting no such lease exists and calls the Baker tale a fraud. Authorities cite Orphans' Court records showing a small 1847 estate of about 6 thousand to 7 thousand dollars, with no lease on Philadelphia city hall or major properties.
