Member Since: August 2005 Posts: 27 Send Message	I have received a Proclomation of Banns (in beautiful handwriting) which states Hugh Sinclair. Ropespinner in the Middle Church Parish of Perth and Christian Munro in the said Parish, Daughter of the George Munro, Sailor in Perth Married 25TH March 1839 This doesn't state Hugh Sinclair's father which is what I expected when I sent away for this. Where would I find details of his father as I have looked in Scotlands People, Church of LDS and Ancestory .com but can't find him. Can anyone point me in the right direction.
