Thank you for your replies and I apologise for
the delay.
My Sinclairs seem to have been in the Dalmally,
Loch Awe area for at least 150 years. ( The local church graveyard is full of
them). Before that I do not know.
As far as the Argyllshire Sinclairs being of a
different line, I have a leaflet that has 8 different articles on the Sinclairs
but 2 of these mention that "the Sinclairs of Argyllshire and of the
West of Scotland... do not appear to be connected to the Sinclairs of the
North". However the references do not say which article is
theirs.
If anyone is interested please find
following those references-
Debrett's Peerage,Baronetage,Knightage &
Companionage
The Highland Clans - Moncreiffe of that
Ilk
A History of the Highlands - James
Browne
The Guide to Scottish Tartans - Albany
Herald

Bain
