I have my Elizabeth Sinclair back to Philly around 1710 - married to a Robert Hunter. Any luck of our being related?

How wonderful that I can still wear the tartan!
I'm not sure if we are related - though I'm sure we are if we go back far enough. I have only been able to trace my Sinclairs back to about 1786 New Hampshire/Vermont and here is where I am stuck! I may have possibly found a sibling of Daniel Sinclair but I'm not certain as that area of New England had quite a few Scots - kind of like central Wisconsin and Poles. LOL
