My name is Margaret Rosalind Ellis (Nee
Sinclair) and I live In Lincolnshire, U.K.
I have, just recently, started to try and trace my
ancestors.
If anyone can help me with more facts, these are my presently
known details:-
My father was James Irvine Sinclair and was born
in St. Margaret's Hope, Orkney on 23rd. May 1909.
I believe he was one of 19 children. Many died young, some
during wars.
His father's name was Robert Anderson Sinclair
who was also born in Orkney.
My father James had a brother, Robert, who emigrated to
Dunedin in New Zealand in approx.. 1920.
He also had a sister, Mary Jane, who emigrated to Brisbane,
Australia in approx.. 1920. As far as we know, Mary married someone named
Whitmee.
Another sister, Maggie, lived in St. Margaret's Hope all her
life and died in approx. 1992.
I would appreciate it if religion could be kept out of any
replies!
