Marion, Unfortunately, Jerimiah is one of my brick walls.  I do not have his parents names.  His wife's name was Bridget McCormac, born in Ireland, and he had a son Thomas, born in Ireland around 1844.  I have two possible brothers, Michael, born abt 1815, who was married to a Bridget (may have married in the US), and John, born abt 1820, who had a wife, Mary (may have married in US).
 
I don't know if he lived anywhere else in Ireland.  I was told many years ago that there was a Baker clan that lived in the county south of Galway that began with an L (Limmerick??).
 
I have searched the available immigration sites and did not come up with anything.  So I am not sure when they came to the US.  I suspect it was between 1844 & 1848, as their son Thomas was born in Ireland abt 1844 and John was born in the US in Jul 1848.  I suspect they had some money as Jeremiah was a skilled laborer (a carpenter) in the mines here and bought property about 1850 and built 3 row houses, which were just torn down in 2006 (fire hazards).
 
I do not have any further information.  Bob
