Ross McWhirter
Alan Ross McWhirter (12 August 1925 – 27 November 1975), known as Ross McWhirter, was, with his twin brother, Norris, the co-founder of Guinness World Records and a contributor to ''The Record Breakers''. He was murdered by the Provisional Irish Republican Army (IRA) in 1975.
==Early life==
McWhirter was the youngest son of William McWhirter, editor of the ''Sunday Pictorial'', and Margaret "Bunty" Williamson. He was born at "Giffnock" (after Giffnock Church in Glasgow, where the McWhirters were married), 10 Branscombe Gardens, Winchmore Hill, London, N21. In 1929, as William was working on the founding of the Northcliffe Newspapers Group chain of provincial newspapers, the family moved to "Aberfoyle", in Broad Walk, Winchmore Hill.〔(Ayrshire Notes – Norris McWhirter ) Ref used only to confirm that "Aberfoyle" is house name in Winchmore Hill, rather than town name in Scotland or Ireland〕 Like his two brothers, Ross McWhirter was educated at Marlborough College and Trinity College, Oxford. Between 1943 and 1946, Ross served with the Royal Navy on board a minesweeper in the Mediterranean.〔(Norris McWhirter – A Short Biography )〕
