Hello Jim
I've come across a 'sinclair' in the 1861 census unmarried, born kirkcaldy aged 28. the index lists hims as Thoms Sinclair
the print on scotlands people is poor.

25 coal wynd, kirkcaldy

Thomas Sinclair lodger unmarried 28 agrictural labourer kirkcaldy. there are 3 other unrelated people in the house all listed as lodgers so it could have been some kind of dosshouse.
I havent looked at the births to check it out but its a possibility?

Hi Jim
I think you're right about moncrieff.
re mary temple, i have her parents as george temple and mary watson - thats all i have.

I had the details of the 1841 census but not the 1851 -do you have that?
in 1851 charles hope sinclair is residing in leslie

1851 census - Charles Sinclair
2 newtown, Leslie

William Wilkie - 60, married, shoemaker
Helen Duncan, 54, married, wife
Charles Sinclair, 22, unmarried, servant, shoemaker
David Tollock, 20, unmarried, servant, shoemaker

i dont have moncrieffs death either - thats an interesting point re his given name - maybe he was registered under something else?

Hello Rab
Ive found Moncrieff Sinclair in the 1901 census  - 87 lorne street dysart. listed as single so don't think its charles hope sinclairs son.
He is listed as a boarder at this house
