Notities over William SINCLAIR

Founder of the Sinclair dynasty in Scotland
The Sinclairs were a noble family which has its origins in Saint-Clair-sur-Epte, in Normandy, France. William “The Seemly” Sinclair, among others, accompanied William the Conqueror in 1066 on his invasion of England. He also accompanied Margaret, daughter of Edward the Exile to Scotland in 1068, where she eventually married Malcolm III of Scotland. In return for his efforts, the king supposedly granted Sinclair the barony of Roslin “in free heritage”.

1057 William "The Seemly' SinclairReturns from Hungary with Atheling Edward 'The Exile' and his daughter Margaret who twelve years later married Malcolm Canmore King of Scotland. She had a piece of the True Cross 'Holy Rood'. In the Houses of Parliament it says 'given to her ancestor by Charlemagne' but this is probably symbolic.
