Does anyone have any work on
Sinclairs in Boston. My Great-Grandmother Francis Anne
Sinclair (Maiden Name) was born in Boston . Her Father was a Hugh
Tolemac Sinclair and I believe he was born in Dundee. His father
was named James. We're talking about the turn of the century
here. My Great-Grandmother died in 1978. I have heard stories
of how Hugh was a painter for the WPA during the depression and that he
too liked to go for "walks". I know of a story where he
said he was going out for milk and came back 13 years later, with the
milk no less. Whether this is family fable or not I do not
know. I believe he died in Florida.
Thanks,

Hugh and Tollemache are names associated with the Ulbster Branch of the
Sinclairs and it would be my guess that your
family descend from this branch of the family.
