Note
"Isaac and Jane Baigent settled on part Section 91 in Upper Wakefield where he built his home. Isaac became the local builder and indertaler. He built the first Wakefield State School in 1860, and the Masonic Hall in Upper Wakefield known as The Forest Lodge. This was later moved to Wakefield Village opposite the school, and Isaac was called The Father of The Lodge. Until his death he was the oldest Mason in the Nelson District.

With David Clark and William and George Farihall, Isaac went on the prospecting trip that found gold in the Tadmor and Baton districts. He was on the Liquor License Control Board, the School Committee, and served St John's Church as choirmaster, Church Warden and Vestryman. He was very musical, playing almost any instrument, and all his family could play, especially his son Eliab.

Isaac and Jane Baigent lie in St John's Cemetery at Wakefield"
