    Notes:


    Marriage of Jane Frances Higgins & William Wilkie Sinclair - 1911, Reg #6114

    I have not found children born to this couple as of yet, as was piecing together information to possible make a possible connection

    Newspaper clipping states William Died at age 40 in 1918

    Searching the New Zealand Cemetery Database in Dunedin in 2019, found a Burial for one Jane Sinclair and a photo of her marker

    Date of Death was 16 Sep 1955 at Age 79 years; her last address given was 98 Middleton Road Dunedin
    Cemetery is Andersons Bay, Dunedin, Block 222, Plot 34
    Her status was Widow, Native of New Zealand, and lived 79 years in New Zealand

    Some of this supports my 'hunch' Jane / Jean may be William Wilkie Sinclair's widow

    All info above confirmed in William Wilkie Sinclair's death certificate received Feb 2019 - hw

    Jane married William Wilkie Sinclair on 1911 Reg #6114. William (son of John Heron Sinclair and Janet Wilkie) was born on 27 Feb 1878 in , , , New Zealand; died on 1 Oct 1918 in Wanganui, New Zealand; was buried on 3 Oct 1918 in Wanganui Cemetery, Wanganui, New Zealand.
