John F Sinclair
« on: Saturday 19 April 25 20:19 BST (UK) »
I've posted previously about my search for information on a John Findlay Sinclair:

https://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=882291.msg7550282#msg7550282

He was born in South Queensferry, Scotland in 1904 and turns up on the 1931 Canadian census living in the Flin Flon Settlement in Manitoba. He is not on the National Registration File of 1940. I am revisiting my search and am posting in the hopes that someone maybe able to help me to move a little closer to finding out what happened to him. Any suggestions would be welcome.

Sorry CanScot I have had another look around but nothing is coming to light.  Have you got an exact birth date for John Findlay Sinclair ?

He was born May 31st 1904.

I found a reference to that birth date on a private anc tree yesterday.  Wanted to check it against
U.S., Social Security Death Index, 1935-2014 just in case he had nipped over the border.  Unfortunately he didn't show up, so that avenue was exhausted. Hoping he would show with that middle name but sorry no further luck.

Appreciate you trying. It would make searching so much easier if the middle name was used. I did come across a marriage of a John Sinclair and Margaret Trindle in 1939 but wasn't sure if it was the correct person.
