Those wishing to find out more information on St. Clare may wish to go to the Catholic Online
Saints website at http://www.catholic.org/saints/saints/clare.html.
As to the Sinclair/St. Clair namesake, he was St. Clarus from Rochester, England. His refusal
to give sexual favors to a noblewoman of Normandy was the occasion for his murder and beheading.
The site for St. Clarus is http://www.catholic.org/saints/saints/clarus2.html. There is also
another St. Clarus on this list, but he is of modern times.
