Notes - Durran remained in the family of Sinclair until purchased by the late Earl of Caithness.
the male representatives of this branch are Augustus Sinclair and Lieut.-Colonel John Sutherland Sinclair, R.A.
The Estate of Olrig remained in the family till the time of Charles Sinclair of Olrig.   He left a daughter, Fenella, who married Mr Cullen, barrister-at-law, and left several children.  whether Mrs Cullen, or her father, sold the estate, I have not been able to ascertain.
