I am looking for any relatives of William J. Sinclair. He was born in 1888. He came to Saskatoon from Ontario. I don't know what year though. He commonly went by the name of Jack. His siblings were, Henry ( b. 1887, Annie ( b> 1891, Albert ( b. 1892, Archie ( b. 1894, Findley & Lindsay ( twins b. 1896. One of the twins died at an early age. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Doug,
I think that you posted the name wrong. Jack's name was John Earle.

Me too!
My Great Grandfather is John Earl Sinclair (I was always told that he went by Jack) he was born later than the rest, 6 Jul 1903 in Perth, Ontario based on the birth record I found. His marriage registration said he was born in Woodham, Ontario.

He also had twins that they name Lindsay and Lindley (my great uncles) born in 1930. I wonder if the stories are confused… My Lindsay died at age 11 (1941) in a woodpile accident, and Lindley of alcohol related problems 1990ish, I don't remember exactly, but I was at the funeral.
I've seen a list of John Earl's older siblings and I did see a Lindsay born in 1896, but no Findley.
Do you have any sources or documents?

As far as William John Sinclair, I know he was married to Mary Margaret Wright, I have their birth record for 4 Jan 1887, in Hastings, Ontario.
