Re: SINCLAIRS 1770 - 1880 ORKNEY,SCOTLAND

Lesley and Ron,

My address is Marilyn Eddy Siperek  I would love a copy of your information.
                      4598 Whalen Rd.                     
                       Great Valley, NY  14741
   My John Sinclair was born about 1752, too old to be your James' brother.  
I was wondering if he might be William' s brother or cousin.  The names in 
your line echo the names in my line which make me think they may be brothers 
or cousins.  The same names carry on through many generations in my family 
and yours.  I also know that there were ties to St. Ola.  I enclose a copy of 
a newspaper article about my great great grandfather's fiftieth wedding 
anniversary.  He was born in 1832, the grandson of John born about 1752.  I 
would be happy to mail what I have and hope we can make some progress 
together.  I will explore the brother hypothesis by searching the IGI for the 
parents of a John born abt 1752 and William born about 1770.  Hope we can 
find a connection.  Here is my line:

   The record from Cecil Sinclair, retired Scottish Records Office archivist,

Cecil notes that she has a brother George and a George Groat was a witness at 
their wedding.  Father also from Closi Hall where James and Barbara were 
married.    Therefore the information from Cecil Sinclair is presumed 
accurate and entered.

Notes for ROBERT SINCLAIR:
>From a newspaper article from the Orkney Islands-

    GOLDEN WEDDING IN SOUTH RONALDSHAY

    Mr. and Mrs. Robert Sinclair, Oyce, attained their jubilee of marriage on 
Wednesday of this week, having been married by Rev. Peter G. Gilrath, parish 
minister (who died this month) on 16th June 1859.  As Mr. Sinclair went to 
the island of Swona for his better half, Miss Allan, the marriage ceremony 
took place there.  This created no small stir, as
there had been no such ceremony on that island within the memory of the 
inhabitants of that time.  Mrs. Sinclair's brother still resides in Swona, 
while she has a widowed sister in St. Margaret's Hope.  The happy pair were 
both of the same age, 26, when united together and have now reached the ripe 
age of 76 years.  They have spent those fifty years in
peace and prosperity; all of their friends and well-wishers desire that their 
latter end may be even better than their beginning; and they have received 
many tokens of friendship and goodwill from far and near on this auspicious 
occasion.  It should be mentioned that Mr. Sinclair like all who bear that 
ancient and honoured name, represents a branch of the
famous "St. Clairs of the Isles."  Belonging to his family were eight 
brothers, namely, Malcolm, Alexander, John, James,George, William, Isaac, and 
Robert.  Only two are still alive- Alexander who has for a number of years 
resided in Galt,Toronto,  and Robert, whose golden wedding has just taken 
place.  George Sinclair was well known as the respected
postmaster of St. Margaret's Hope, while William and Isaac were farmers at 
Lower and Upper Olad, and John at Gara, near to one another.  Mr. and Mrs. 
Robert Sinclair have had a large family of eleven children, while 5 sons and 
5 daughters are still alive, some of them being abroad.  There is one in 
Africa, one in Australia, two in America, two in Liverpool, one in Glasgow, 
one in Barbsley, Yorkshire, and one at home.  As far as grandchildren, they 
number eighteen.  At present the aged couple are cheered and comforted by the 
presence of their son, William along with his wife from New York, who have 
timed their visit for this happy event.  Old Mr. Sinclair in his younger days 
was very fond of music and for 14 years was the precantor of St. Mary's Kirk 
under the Rev. Messre??(hard to read copy), Walker and Forbes.  And for 14 
years he resided in Olad- 1861-1875- before he came to his present residence.
