Greetings, I am researching David and Eliza Sinclair (nee Falconer) of Calgary, Alberta Canada. They were originally from Glenbervie Kincardineshire, Scotland.

Hi, I'm not sure what period your interested in but if you go on to Freecen and search the 1851 census, there are four David Sinclairs born in Glenbervie and one has a wife named Elizabeth. There are more in 1841.

Hallo WESmith. Are you familiar with the site www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk ?
It is a pay site where you have to buy credits to access records, but is a great source of information when researching Scottish ancestors as you can buy online access to the record images without having to wait for postal delivery.
