Photo of Carl Sinclair
Carl Mason Sinclair was born Carl Mason Steinberg but adopted the use of his mother's maiden name after his parents divorce. On his father's side he was descended from United Empire Loyalists. Our first ancestor in this country was Henry Steenbergh, of Dutch descent, who came to Williamsburg in Upper Canada from Esopus, N.Y. in 1793.<P> I never knew my brother but my uncle and cousins spoke of him as one of the nicest and kindest of people. I have always felt the empty space of someone who could have been in my life. He is remembered, for a life that could have been, by a sister he never knew. -
