Known to be alive in 1663 as he made his will that year.

This is where St Clair's picks up the Mey branch as a "Baronetical Branch".
Appears in Charters in 1635 and 1636 styled as Sir James Sinclair of Canisbay.
NB: Nick Cram-Sinclair gives his date of birth as about 1628, however, it is difficult to see how he could have been made a baronet when he was 4 years of age, nor how he could have been styled in charters dated 1635 and 1636 as Sir James Sinclair of Canisbay at 7 and 8 years of age.
Also, his mother died in 1603 making a birth year of 1628 more than a little ludicrous.

This couple were 1st cousins once removed.
No one seems to have any real idea when Elizabeth was born or died.
William Sinclair, whom she married, was her cousin.
Most people place this marriage as occurring 18 March 1642, however no sources are readily apparent. There is a marriage between William Sinclair and Elizabeth Sinclair recorded in Canisbay on 10 March 1657, for which there seems to be no good reason to exclude as the marriage of this couple.

St Clair's says Margaret married Sir William Dunbar of Hempriggs.
Burke's claims that this Margaret was the grandaughter of Alexander and daughter of George Sinclair and Elizabeth Cumming.
Margaret married William DUNBAR 1st Baronet, Northfield,1,2 son of John DUNBAR 3rd Of Hempriggs 1,2 and Anne FRASER,1,2,11,162 in Caithness, Scotland, United Kingdom.11 William died in 1711 in Caithness, Scotland, United Kingdom.11
Sir William Dunbar was created first Baronet of Hempriggs in 1700 with remainder restricted to heirs-male, but on later reflection, as he had an only daughter Elizabeth but no son, and as he wished her and the children of her second marriage to succeed to his new acquired possessions, he executed an entail of his lairds in her favour and also asked Queen Anne for a new baronetcy in favour of his son-in-law. Elizabeth had married Sir Robert Gordon of Gordonstone, grandson of the historian, by whom she had seven children. After his death she married the Hon. James Sutherland, advocate, second son of the second Lord Duffus. As the children of the first marriage were already well provided for, Sir William wished the landless heirs of the second marriage to come into the succession. Accordingly, on Sir William’s death, his son-in-law was created Sir James Sutherland Dunbar of Hempriggs with remained to heirs-general. The first baronetcy passed to Sir William’s brother Robert, and still exists although now known as Northfield. Sir James Dunbar (previously Sutherland) was succeeded by his son and heir Sir William Dunbar (the couple had six children). During the lairdship of Sir William a writer in 1726 says Ackergill Tower was then "a strong tower and yet in repair and betwixt it and the sea is a good new house lately built". Bishop Forbes visited the tower in 1762; He mentions that the vaulted chamber on the ground floor was ‘then used as a kitchen and that Sir William Dunbar had cut out some large windows and was doing up the tower in a very pretty and elegant manner’.

There seems to be decided confusion about just whom this William married. The Scots Peerage, St Clair's of the Isles and Burkes Peerage all state that he married Mary/Margaret Sinclair, daughter of James Sinclair (son of Henry, 5th Lord Sinclair) AND in other places state he married Mary Sinclair, daughter of Henry, 3rd Lord Sinclair. However, given that the line of the Lords Sinclair has been fairly well documented, it seems most likely that the marriage given in reference to Margaret, daughter of James, Master of Sinclair, is the correct marriage.

Y
Difficult to determine his approximate year of birth.
1621 he fought a duel with his relative, Sir William Sinclair of Mey, which tends to indicate he was 21 or older (or at least of adult age).
In 1624 he was styled Francis Sinclair, Laird of Stirkoke, but how he came to obtain the lands of Stirkoke does not seem to ever be mentioned.
St Clair's of the Isles states that Francis Sinclair was a natural son of George (43rd Earl) and Barbara Mearns (p. 247), however Burkes Peerage states that he was a legitimate son of George and Jean Huntly.
Possibly two son's named Francis? One natural and one lawful?
There definitely appears to be two sons by the name Francis - one of Stirkoke and one of Keiss and Northfield.

Margaret/Mary married William SINCLAIR Lord Berriedale,1,2 son of George SINCLAIR 5th Earl Of Caithness 1,2,4,6,106,141 and Lady Jane GORDON Countess Of Caithness,1,2,4,165 ____________.11 William was born about 1586 and died between 1639 and 1643.
Third cousins once removed.
1592 - Charter of the Earldom on his father's resignation
1616 - arrested at the instigation of his cousin-german, Sir James Home of Cowdenknowes.
There seems to be decided confusion about just whom this William married. The Scots Peerage, St Clair's of the Isles and Burkes Peerage all state that he married Mary/Margaret Sinclair, daughter of James Sinclair (son of Henry, 5th Lord Sinclair) AND in other places state he married Mary Sinclair, daughter of Henry, 3rd Lord Sinclair. However, given that the line of the Lords Sinclair has been fairly well documented, it seems most likely that the marriage given in reference to Margaret, daughter of James, Master of Sinclair, is the correct marriage.
