the 10th Earl of Caithness was Lord William Sinclair.My g-g-g-grandfather
Joseph Wickens married Isabella Bruce of Scotland, born cir 1810. One
record says that she was the granddaughter of the Earl of Caithness. (Was
disowned by her family because she married a commoner). Another paper says
that she was the granddaughter of Lord William Sinclair. Another says that
she was a descendant of Sir William Sinclair of Dunbeath, Baronet of Nova
Scotia. She lived and died in Centreville, Nova Scotia. Have ran into a
road block and don't know where to go from here. Any help would be
appreciated.
