Not a populated place, from what I can tell. I can only find a few houses nearby. Likely nothing more than a simple stop or crossing. wizzito | say hello! 00:54, 23 September 2021 (UTC)

- Comment. A small cemetery is located here. "Details - Bakers Crossing Graveyard - Atlas Number 7465001705 - Atlas: Texas Historical Commission". Also, https://www.findagrave.com/cemetery/2525937/fort-hudson-cemetery Eastmain ( talk • contribs) 04:44, 23 September 2021 (UTC)
- Also, the article refers to a settler at this location, which is separate from the military base once located nearby. Eastmain ( talk • contribs) 04:53, 23 September 2021 (UTC)
- Delete - Not a community, just a river crossing named after a family who settled nearby. – dlthewave ☎ 20:51, 23 September 2021 (UTC)

- Keep. 1961 coverage talks about a family settling there, and so does an article from 1969. In 1973, more articles detail the history of Baker's Crossing as a populated place. Combined with the three non-GNIS sources already in the article, it seems to me like this is notable enough to warrant coverage. jp× g 18:40, 28 September 2021 (UTC)
- Delete, one family residing somewhere does not constitute a settlement. ♠ PMC♠ (talk) 00:17, 30 September 2021 (UTC)
