| 195 | A son was born in an Edinburgh nursing home on Monday last to Mrs Mervyn B. Alexander-Sinclair, who is daughter-in-law of Admiral Sir Edwyn and Lady Alexander-Sinclair of Dunbeath Castle, Caithness. Her husband, like his distinguished father, is in the “King’s Navee,” and holds the rank of Lieutenant-Commander. Admiral Alexander-Sinclair, who commanded the 1st Battle Squadron of the Atlantic Fleet from 1922 to 1924, and then was on the China Station, now is Commander-in-Chief at the Nore. In addition to Dunbeath Castle, which usually is let for the season, he has in Caithness a moorland shooting-box, Balcraggie Lodge, and another picturesque place built high on the cliffs of Dwarick Head, and named by its sailor owner The House of the Northern Gate. The Admiral’s duties do not permit him to be much in Caithness, but Lady Alexander-Sinclair and her daughter, Miss Stroma Alexander-Sinclair, spend most of their time in the north. source: “Grandson For Admiral Alexander-Sinclair.” Dundee, UK: Evening Telegraph, 6 May 1927, p. 4.

Death of Admiral Alexander-Sinclair Admiral Sir Edwyn Sinclair Alexander-Sinclair, G.C.B., who died at Dunbeath Castle, Caithness, Tuesday, at the age of 79 was Admiral Superintendent of Portsmouth Dockyard for two and a half years from 1920. He will be remembered in the port for the great interest he took in all branches of sport, civilian as well as Service. While holding this appointment he was promoted to vice-admiral, and from Portsmouth he went afloat in command of the First Battle Squadron. His next appointment was as Commander-in-Chief in China, but as he had become a full admiral while in the Far East he did not remain the usual two years on that station. Returning to England in 1927, he became Commander-in-Chief at the Nore, and when he retired at the end of 1930 he was First and Principal Naval A.D.C. to the King. source: Obituary of Sir Edwyn Alexander-Sinclair.

Glasgow, UK: The Glasgow Citizen, 25 Jan 1845. DEATH OF CLAUD ALEXANDER, OF BALLOCHMYLE. - Our readers will regret to learn the sudden and unexpected demise of this respected gentleman at Ballochmyle, on Tuesday last. We have heard it stated, we know not with what degree of accuracy, that the deceased will be succeeded in his estates of Ballochmyle by his younger brother, W. M. Alexander, Esq., of Southbar, who, we have been variously informed, either has it in his option to choose betwixt retaining Southbar and accepting Ballochmyle; or is absolutely bound to relinquish Southbar to his next younger brother, in order to take up the vacant entail. Mr. W. M. Alexander, it is well known, has laid out a very great deal of time and expense in the improvement of the Southbar estate; the extent being indeed inconceivable to any one unacquainted with that gentleman’s taste and talent for agricultural improvement. So that unless the Ballochmyle property is vastly superior, the latter alternative would be a hardship probably not contemplated in the original entail. Kilmarnock Journal. source: Obituary of Claud Alexander of Ballochmyle. London, UK: The Sun, 29 Jan 1845. THE LATE CLAUD ALEXANDER ESQ. OF BALLOCHMYLE. The death of this gentleman, says the Scottish Guardian of Tuesday, has cast a gloom over that whole district of country to which he belonged. Still comparatively in the vigour of life - active and zealous in every good work - possessing that extensive influence which his position in society, and yet more his high character and Christian worth, so justly gave him - not only his own neighbourhood and county, but his numerous friends everywhere, were looking forward to many years of increasing usefulness and honour as awaiting him. Almost constantly resident on his own estates, - dwelling among his own people, - he was known to and beloved by all. A generous landlord, a kind master, the benefactor of the poor, the steady friend of the well-doing, - he was at the same time resolute, both as a private individual and as a county magistrate, in repressing vice and crime. In the last-named capacity, indeed, it was not on the bench alone he occupied himself with offenders. He was a missionary as well as a magistrate, and the county prison was the frequent scene of his labour. Going from cell to cell with the Bible in his hand, his heart’s desire and prayer for the worst of it inmates was, that they might be saved. With his deep attachment to the Free Church, and his many important services to her cause, there are few of our readers who are not well acquainted. All through the great controversy in which the Free Church originated, he evinced his high sense of the worth and magnitude of the principles at stake. To those who knew him best, it will appear no extravagance to say that for these principles he would cheerfully have laid down his life. And accordingly, when the day of trial came, there was no sacrifice of time, or labour, or means, which he did not esteem it a privilege to make. The extent of these sacrifices few can estimate; for he was one of those who blow no trumpet before them, - who, in doing good, suffer not their left hand to know what their right is doing. But while thus decided and strong in his own convictions, he was most scrupulous in avoiding even the appearance of forcing these convictions on others. His humblest dependent was left as free as his master to act on his own sense of duty. It was in the midst of this career of active benevolence and Christian devotedness to every good work, he was called suddenly away. For some months he had suffered a good deal from pain in the head, but under an impression that it was nothing worse than rheumatism, it created no apprehension. On the 18th instant, he was taken with an illness which, though it confined him to the house, caused no uneasiness to his friends, till the evening of the 21st, when all at once he was seized with convulsions, which in a few hours brought life to a close. The cause of his death, we understand, was serous-apoplexy. “Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord form henceforth: yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours, and their works do follow them.” source: Obituary of Claud Alexander. Edinburgh, UK: The Witness, 5 Feb 1845. The Presbytery gave expression to their profound sorrow and regret at the sudden death of Claud Alexander, Esq. of Ballochmyle, a steady, enlightened, and most generous supporter of the Free Church cause, as well as a consistent follower of Jesus. They resolved to draw up a paper, expressive of their deep sorrow and heartfelt sympathy, to be transmitted to his afflicted relatives, and also to be engrossed on the records of the Presbytery. The Presbytery meet on the 25th inst. to elect members of the ensuing Assembly, and to consider several acts and overtures. source: Obituary of Claud Alexander.
