Dear Jane, Thank you for your reply!! I am new to this geneology thing, and have recently found out that one of my near relatives was adopted by a Sinclair. His real father may be an "Owens". I can't confirm that yet. If I get more information I will forward it to you. Sincerely, Merrill E. Sinclair, Jr. Elgin, ILL Mesinclair@aol.com
