Greetings from another newcomer to this list. I am particularly interested in Dr. William WHITAKER, who was born in PA ca. 1806, married in New Orleans in 1829 and died in Mobile AL in 1870. He was listed in the census as a physician, but so far I have been unable to determine where he might have received his medical education. Dr. Whitaker's father probably was William Whitaker, a tailor who was born in Chester Co. PA ca 1770 and died in Danville PA sometime after the 1840 census. I would appreciate any further information about this line of Whitakers. Dave

John WHITTAKER son of Thomas WHITTAKER and Ellen HOYLE? b 1837 Burnley, Lancashire, England m Oct 1858 Mary Ann INGHAM Lancashire Had 11 children d 11 Mar 1907 Timaru, New Zealand Occupation bootmaker Emigrated to NZ from London via Southampton on the barque Victory in 1863 to Timaru NZ. Came out with his brother Charles. Also Henry and James Whittaker who are said to be related. Henry and John worked together in the same shoe shop.James and Henry's parents were James WHITTAKER and Alice COLLINGE who lived around Crawshawbooth in Lancashire. Regards Allana Inglis
