She later lived in Poughkeepsie, New York, Ann Arbor, MI, Akron, OH, Socorro, NM, San Diego, CA, and Roseville, Point Loma, CA Description An account of the resource Charlotte Johnson Baker, who was born on March 30, 1855, in Newburyport, MA, was educated in her town high school and Vassar College.  Later, she earned her medical degree at the University of Michigan. She and her husband, also a doctor, moved to San Diego and practiced there.  In a 2016 <a href="https://obhistory.wordpress.com/2016/07/22/aug-18-fred-baker-m-d-pioneer-san-diego-physician-and-civic-activist/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">article</a>, a descendant described Charlotte as "the first female M.D. in San Diego, who was well known for delivering over 1,000 babies."  Dr. Baker, a parent of two, had a keen interest in the idea of parents having equal participation in child-raising. In addition to spending her time with patients and raising her family, Charlotte was active in a variety of professional activities.  She was elected president of the San Diego County Medical Society in 1898 and was a member of the Southern California Anti-Tuberculosis League Dedicated to reform, Charlotte was a member of the WCTU and advocated for women's causes. As her profile notes, "Dr. Baker has always identified herself with the Woman's Christian Temperance Union and with all other movements for the advancement of women individually, socially, and politically" (46). Charlotte played a prominent role in the California Equal Suffrage Association and the San Diego Equal Suffrage Association.  In addition, she was a member of the National American Woman Suffrage Association, the Woman’s Parliament of Southern California, and the Y.W.C.A. of the Southwest,   Since she loved to travel, Charlotte sometimes returned to Massachusetts to visit family members.  She and Fred were avid bug collectors, and in October of 1913, they went on a bug collecting trip around the world.  When they returned, she continued her medical career and her pursuit of equal suffrage.   She passed away on Halloween in 1937 and was buried in San Diego's Greenwood Memorial Park. 1851-1860 1855 Akron Ann Arbor Anna Howard Shaw Beaumelle Sturtevant-Peet CA California Equal Suffrage Association Charlotte Johnson Baker Elizabeth Lowe Watson MA March Mary Ashton Livermore Medicine MI Newburyport Newburyport High School NM NY obstetrics OH physician Poughkeepsie Roseville San Diego San Diego Civil Service Commission San Diego County Medical Society San Diego Equal Suffrage Association Socorro Southern California Anti-Tuberculosis League Southern California Medical Society Southern California Woman's Parliament University of Michigan Vassar Walter Lindley Woman's Christian Temperance Union Young Women's Christian Association
