Dear Jack,
 
Congratulations, you have just found another relative!
 
My Great Great Grandfather was James Sinclair, younger brother of John (b:27th April 1807, Kirkwall & St. Ola). James succeeded his Father, William, in the tenancy of a farm called Crossiecrown which was situated just outside Kirkwall. The birth dates of the children are listed below, also you will notice that there was a sixth son born to William & Mary named George (b: Aug 1814, Kirkwall).
 
We have tried for many years to get further back, only to be thwarted as the Parish Record which contains the marriage is missing. There is a chance that we may have found a way to get around this problem. We will keep you informed.
