(???? – )

Cyril C. Whitaker, sometimes referred to as Cyril Whittaker and seemingly once as C. C. Witaker, was a UK fan from Spalding in the mid-1950s and 1960s.

He is listed in Ron Bennett's Directory of Science Fiction Fandom for 1955–7. He was a member of Cytricon, the 1955 Eastercon. He attended Cytricon III in 1957 and Loncon I later that year where, per a report in Innuendo 6, he shared a room with Ron Bennett. He was also a member of the Brumcon in 1959 and appears intermittently on subsequent Eastercon membership lists including 1965 which includes an attendee called "C. C. Witaker" and Thirdmancon in 1968.

Vector 42 notes that he contacted Doreen Parker in September 1966 about a Lincoln Astronomical Society event, suggesting he may have been a member of both that organisation and the BSFA.

He may have been Cyril Clive Whitaker (January 28 1933 – May 10, 1969).
