Nelson Henry Baker (February 16, 1842 – July 29, 1936) was an American Catholic priest in the Buffalo, New York, area. At the time of his death in 1936, he had developed a "city of charity" at Our Lady of Victory Basilica in Lackawanna, New York. It consisted of a minor basilica, an infant home, a home for unwed mothers, a boys' orphanage, a boys' protectory, a hospital, a nurses' house, and a grade and high school.
Since 1986, the parish and the Diocese of Buffalo have been working to secure Baker's canonization. He was declared Venerable in 2011 by Pope Benedict XVI.
