It would be okay for me to wear the Sinclair tartan, right? This is assuming that I am able to trace the Sinclair line back to Scotland and not somewhere else. Does it matter the Sinclairname is about 6 Generations back? I'm thinking of adding something about the Sinclairs into my Civil War reenacting persona and that is based on my 3xgreat-grandmother (whose mother's maiden name is Sinclair).

That's the beauty of SCOTS genealogy - once a Sinclair, always a Sinclair! In most cultures, once a woman marries, she is no longer entitled to wear or use her maiden name's crest or whatever!
I have my Elizabeth Sinclair back to Philly around 1710 - married to a Robert Hunter. Any luck of our being related?
