Hi Ann........ I don't know if my Whittaker's are related, but my father (b. 1929) is William Franklin Whittaker and he had a brother Robert who was born about 1931? I have been haveing trouble locating ancestors. My grandfather, Ira R. Whittaker married Anna Marie Cromer. Ira's mother was Sarah Wolf, I think, she married a Whittaker but I cannot locate a first name. My dad is still living, however, he doesn't recall much about his grandfather. As far as I know these Whittakers were all from central to western PA. I'm in the process of finishing some graduate work and hopefull will have more time to devote to searching next summer..................Maybe we can make some connections. Barb
