William is the brother of Catherine Fisken who is your great grandmother. The Fiskens lived in Dumbarton in Scotland. After Catherine married William Glover she moved to Newcastle and then her father and some of her siblings followed her down there.
This William Fisken was born on this day in 1871 in Dumbarton, Scotland. His parents were William Fisken and Lily Campbell. He was their second child. Down in Newcastle William was a marine engineer which likely means that he worked on the Tyneside shipyards. He never married - or so it seems anyway. In the 1911 census, when he was 40, he was living with his dad and various other Fiskens and Glovers - and that's the last I know of him....
