I have been researching my fathers name Whisker. I am origanally from Fife Scotland but now live in blackpool lancashire. My father was born William Whisker 1919 in lochore on the 13th July 1919, his father was Thomas Whisker and Mother Mary Brady or Paterson she was previously married to an Andrew Paterson. My father was born out of wedlock but his parents married when he was 6 in 1925 in Edinburgh, his mother(Mary) was born 1888 her father was lawrence brady and her mother was Sarah Mckellar. My fathers father was born 28th nov 1892 at Haywood in the carnwath district of lanarkshire his father was william whisker and his mother wasJane kechans. At this point my family moved from Lanarkshire to Fife.. looking for mining jobs.
