The author of the Mey Letters refer to this James Sinclair as the 3rd Baronet of Mey, however this certainly appears to be incorrect - he was at least the 5th Baronet. Nonetheless it was definitely this James' father who died in a debtors prison in Kirkwall in 1732.

Served heir to his father on 11 August 1736.

James married Margaret SINCLAIR,¹ daughter of John SINCLAIR 2nd Of Barrock ³⁰³ and Anne SINCLAIR Of Durran,³⁰³ in Nov 1735 in Caithness, Scotland, United Kingdom.⁴³³ Margaret was born before 1719 in Caithness, Scotland, United Kingdom.

possible death: 1739 in Ireland. Source: research by Nick Cram-Sinclair, however, source untrustworthy as his dates are wrong for every member of this family prior to this, and he offers no proof and no source.

Kirk sessions of Wick 1721 report that the sister of the Laird of Stirkoke was pregnant to the Laird of Mey. The lady admitted the affair. (Mey letters, p. 21)

This son was endowed with a wadset of the lands called Hollandmake.

St Clair's of the Isles attributes this son to Sir James' father, however, the timing makes this impossible.

St Clair's states very clearly that Marjory married John Dunbar, son of Sir Patrick Dunbar of Northfield, her cousin-german. This is the only Sir Patrick with a son John.

Marjory married John DUNBAR,³⁶² son of Sir Patrick DUNBAR 3rd Baronet, Northfield ¹ and Katherine SINCLAIR Lady Bowermadden,¹ about 1763.⁴³¹ John was born about 1726. They had no children.

Marjory's Marriage Details : Cousins-german (first cousins).
St Clair's states that this couple married, but had no children. This directly contradicts Burkes Peerage who state he died prior to Marjory's birth, and unmarried.

As they were first cousins there should be a papal dispensation or some form of allowance for this marriage to prove or disprove it.

predeceased his father (dvp)

Burkes Peerage claims John died, unmarried, in April 1749. St Clair's states he married Marjory Sinclair, but died with no issue. Marjory wasn't born until about 1749.

John has conflicting death information of Apr 1749. This is the date Burkes Peerage gives for his death (without substantiation).

William lodged a claim to the dignity of Earl of Caithness which was sustained by the Committee of Privileges, however the preceding Earl had left his estates to the Sinclairs of Stevenson.

"...a story is still well known in the Wick area that on the night of their wedding they spent the night in a thatched cottage, the ruins of which can still be seen near the Lochshell-Georgemas road on the farm of Winless Mains on the Ackergill estate. The bridal couple were making their way from the bride1s home of Bighouse to spend their honeymoon at Hempriggs House, almost certainly journeying on horseback when at Sibster they found the River Wick in spate and the ford there impassable. As darkness was falling they sought and found shelter in the cottage. Lord Duffus died in 1843 and was succeeded by his elder son Sir George Sutherland Dunbar fourth Baronet who never used the title of Lord Duffus contenting himself with the lesser Hempriggs Baronetcy."

1772 - retoured heir to his great grandfather, Francis Sinclair.
1780 - sold his interest in Brabsterdorran to Miss Sinclair of Southdun (St Clairs, p.244)

According to St Clair's (p.243 and 244) this Alexander was the son of David Sinclair and Jean Sinclair, however, according to the Landed Gentry of Great Britain and Ireland, he was Alexander Sinclair of Brabsterdorran, who was the son of John Sinclair and Margaret, who assigned her wadset to her son Alexander in 1693. Alexander then sold his interest in Brabsterdorran.

Alexander was known to be the great grandson of Francis of Brabsterdorran, and since he was the last Sinclair of Brabsterdorran, they must be one and the same person, so his parentage is very much in question. Conclusion - there must have been two Alexander Sinclair's of Brabsterdorran at the same time. Considering each person only owned a portion of the estate this is feasible. However, this also means that John Sinclair and Margaret, with sons William and Alexander, who were granted a wadset to Brabsterdorran by Henry Dundas in 1670 are apparently unconnected to any of the other families of the area.

David Sinclair and Jean Sinclair being Alexander's parents makes more sense in terms of Alexander being Francis Sinclair's great grandson.

Scottish statesman, was the eldest son of Sir John Mackenzie, Bart., of Tarbat (d. 1654), and belonged to the same family as the earls of Seaforth. In 1654 he joined the rising in Scotland on behalf of Charles II. and after an exile of six years he returned to his own country and took some part in public affairs after the Restoration. In 1661 he became a lord of session as Lord Tarbat, but having been concerned in a vain attempt to overthrow Charles II.’s secretary, the earl of Lauderdale, he was dismissed from office in 1664. A period of retirement followed until 1678 when Mackenzie was appointed lord justice general of Scotland; in 1681 he became lord clerk register and a lord of session for the second time, and from 1682 to 1688 he was the chief minister of Charles II. and James II. in Scotland, being created viscount of Tarbat in 1685. In 1688, however, he deserted James and soon afterwards made his peace with William III., his experience being very serviceable to the new government in settling the affairs of Scotland. From 1692 to 1695 Tarbat was again lord clerk register, and having served for a short time as a secretary of state nuder Queen Anne he was created earl of Cromarty in 1703. He was again lord justice general from 1704 to 1710. He warmly supported the union between England and Scotland, writing some pamphlets in favour of this step, and he died on the 17th of August 1714. Cromarty was a man of much learning, and among his numerous writings may be mentioned his Account of the conspiracies by the earls of Gowry and R. Logan (Edinburgh, 1713).

The earl’s grandson George, 3rd earl of Cromarty (c. 1703— I 766), succeeded his father John, the 2nd earl, in February 1731. In 1745 he joined Charles Edward, the young pretender, and he served with the Jacobites until April 1746 when he was taken prisoner in Sutherlandshire. He was tried and sentenced to death, but he obtained a conditional pardon although his peerage was forfeited. He died on the 28th of September 1766.
This earl’s eldest son was John Mackenzie, Lord Macleod (1727—f 789), who shared his father’s fortunes in ‘745 and his fate in 1746. Having pleaded guilty at his trial Macleod was pardoned on condition that he gave up all his rights in the estates of the earldom, and he left England and entered the Swedish army. In this servicehe rose to high rank and was made Count Cromarty. The count returned to England in 1777 and was successful in raising, mainly among the Mackenzies, two splendid battalions of Highlanders, the first of which, now the Highland Light Infantry, served under him in India. In 1784 he regained the family estates and he died on the 2nd of April 1789. Macleod wrote an account of the Jacobite rising of 1745, and also one of a campaign in Bohemia in which he took part in 1757; both are printed in Sir W. Fraser’s Earls of Cromartie (Edinburgh, 1876).

Macleod left no children, and his heir was his cousin, Kenneth Mackenzie (d. 1796), a grandson of the 2nd earl, who also died childless. The estates then passed to Macleod’s sister, Isabel (1725—1801), wife of George Murray, 6th Lord Elibank. In 1861 Isabel’s descendant, Anne (f829—1288), wife of George, 3rd duke of Sutherland, was created countess of Cromartie with remainder to her second son Francis (1852—1893), who became earl of Cromartie in 1888. In 1895, two years after the death of Francis, his daughter Sibell Lilian (b. 1878) was granted by letters patent the title of countess of Cromartie.
