What a story. Living history. Thank you for sharing. What I can make out
you have a few other forbearers up your sleeve. Hiram is, I think,.
descended from Patrick (6th Lord) Sinclair and ultimately from Henry St
Clair, Baron of Roslyn Born abt 1222.
Is the any relation to John M. Sinclair, who served as an officer from 29
June 1861 until discharged by General Order 23 July 1865. in the
Twenty-second Pennsylvania Cavalry Regiment(PA Ian). The fathers of both
arrived in America aboard a Prussian flagged ship sailing out of Antwerp via
the Orkney Islands.
