I am searching for the father of William WHITTIKER/WHITAKER who was born 1802/1804 in MS. Mother was Nancy, who remarried a William FITZGIBBONS/ Fitz GIBBON in Quachita, LA in 1819. (William WHITTIKER had a brother Peter. In fact, there are a William Elijah & a Peter Randolph in every generation since them. Peter was born 1804/1808.) FITZGIBBONS, Nancy and kids came to Texas in 1822 with Staphen F. Austin's first colony and lived in several counties in east Texas, including Harris and Upshur. They also joined the Robertson Colony in 1838 and got land grants then. Family info says William's first wife was Nancy RANDOLPH. Their children were: Elijah (1829), R. (1830), C. (1833). He married second wife Nancy WALKER in Harrison County, TX in 1841. Their known children were: M.A. (1844), E. (1849), and John Taylor (1858). William apparently died in the late 1850's, as did Nancy, and the children were dispersed to other families, according to family info. I have a lot on his decendancy to share. Any clues??? Mari
