Surprise - this Sinclair actually is from Scotland!

Well at least from one-fourth of my family (I think the rest is dominated by German genes). I got an email a couple weeks back about annual Sinclair reunion, which when we attend we are the only Sinclairs. Ha. Obviously, I can't make it, but asked them if anyone had any background on the Sinclair history which I have desperately wanted for ages.

Yesterday, I got some emails from family members I've never heard of stating they had traced my line back to Scotland ... from 1630! Hurray! So now I can start looking over here for my great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-grandfather, William Sincler (whew what a spelling)! Should make for a fun summer!
