As there has been quite a bit of discussion on this list of Sinclair as a family and small town, I just want to add that in the 1860 census of Allegany County Maryland in "Summitville" near Oakland there is a family of Silas Cinclear 25, a railroader, Mary M, 22, and Josephine, 1. They are enumerated in the household of Edward Barnard Another lister in the past said this was a relative of Sinclair in Preston County.
