Thank you . Something like this is always very hard to find. I see you mention " Sinclairs " a Family history - It would be deeply appreciated by members ( now over 66,000 ) if you could see your way to put together a journal for all of us to peruse I am sure their is bound to
be someone with relationship to your family tree . Ok . Hope you may be able to assist us further - Regards - edmondsallan
Thank you for the positive feedback. I'll try to submit some other entries from this book. (I don't think Thomas will mind...the more connections we can make, the better!)

If you have access to Ancestory.ca, you can view my WILKIE family tree which has links to the Sinclair family dating back to Robert Sinclair (circa 1650).
Is this the Sinclair family from Prestonkirk, Haddington ?
