Ron, this is one family I did not write down every reference I found, since I already knew the name of the emigrant. But I'm wondering if a Baltimore connection might lead you to the Whitakers of Harford Co. I feel sure that I read of a book being published on that family. You might ask at the Historical Society in Baltimore to see if they have it. Again I don't know their email address, but they must have a webpage. You do not have a date, but here's an interesting possibility. Marcilian W Whitaker was administrator for James L Whitaker 6 May 1889, see Harford Co Estate Docket.
