THE START OF SINCLAIR DYNASTY

In 1095, Baron Henri de St. Clair was on the first Crusade in the Holy, Land with the brother of King Henry I of England, Robert Courte-Heuze, Hugh de Payen, the count of Champagne Hugh I, who was a blood relative of Hugh de Payen. Hugh de Payen was also married to Katherine St. Clair, AKA Elizabeth de Chappes, a sister of Barron Henri de St. Clair. Andre Montband a blood relative of the Duke of Burgundy and Uncle of Bernard of Clairvaux, Godfri de Boulion head of the House of Flanders, a cousin of Baron St. Clair, was of the Rex Deus.

Godfri de Boulion was offered the crown of Jerusalem after its capture in 1099. But chose to rule as protector of the Holy Sepulcher. Godfri died childless and was succeeded by his brother Baldwin, who became known as King Baldwin I of Jerusalem. He was succeeded by Baldwin II who was King at the time of the formation of the Knights Templar.

King Baldwin and this line of family is descendant of the Merovingian dynasty and are the Blood Line of Jesus and Mary Magdalene. "One might therefore term Godfroi de Bouillon as a sort of ’king of kings’, or at least a maker of kings, since he founded the Order of Sion that could crown Kings of Jerusalem.

"To the south of Jerusalem looms the ’high hill’ of Mount Sion." By 1099 an abbey had been built on the ruins of an old Byzantine basilica at the express command of Godfroi de Bouillon. "According to one chronicler, writing in 1172, it was extremely well fortified, with its own walls, towers and battlements. And this structure was called the Abbey of Notre Dame du Mont de Sion.

 Richard the III of Normandy, the fifth Duke, Robert the Devil, Mauger the Young, were the sons of Richard the II, Fourth Duke of Normandy.  He had two daughters who also married right.  Alix became  the wife of the Count of Burgundy and Eleanor the wife of Boulion, the Count of Flanders. Neither Richard nor Robert the Devil, had any legitimate children.  Most of the Norman barons would have preferred the succession to pass to the son of the duke’s younger brother Mauger. A party formed by the constable of Normandy was formed that supported the claims of William, the bastard son of Robert the Devil; this man became known to history as William the conqueror.

Mauger had three sons;  Hamon, Walderne, and Hubert.   Hamon and Walderne were both killed at the battle of  Val-des-Dunes, where the succession of William the Bastard was ensured.  Two of Walderne children, Richard and Britel, became reconciled with William the Conquer and played a part in the conquest of England, where they were later given estates. 

The two remaining children Agnes and William were very young at the time of their father Maugers death. Agnes married Phillip Bruce, who was also of Norman origin, and an Ancestor of William the Bruce who became King of Scotland  after the battle of Bannockburn in 1309.

William became known to history as William the Seemly St. Clair, who escorted Princess Margaret to Scotland where she was to marry Malcome Canmore King of the Scots as a reward for his services he became the Baron of Roslyn.  He later commanded the Scots when they fought against William the conqueror who was now King of England.  William the Seemly St. Clair, the first Lord of Roslyn was later killed in a battle with the English in Northumberland..
