The obituary for Archibald Sinclair from the Feb 14, 1929 edition of the Erin Advocate reads as follows:
A highly respected citizen of Erin Township passed peacefully away, in his sleep, in the early  hours of Saturday morning, February 9th, in the person of Archibald Sinclair, in his 72nd year.  Deceased was of a reserved disposition, but enjoyed a wide circle of friends and was well known as a skilled carpenter, a reformer in politics and a member of Burn's Presbyterian Church, Erin.  Although not in his usual health during the past few months, he was about the home as usual and his sudden demise was quite a shock to the family and immediate friends.  A son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Donald Sinclair, he spent his life in the community.  He is survived by one sister, Mrs. Near, Rockwood; and two brothers; John Sinclair, 8th line Erin and Donald at home.  A brother, Alexander, predeceased him on October 5th last.  The funeral took place from the family residence on Monday, February 11th, when a large concourse of friends and neighbours assembled to pay their last respects to the departed and his pastor, Rev. Edward Lee conducted the services at the home and graveside, at Erin Cemetery.  The many and beautiful floral tributes were but mute evidence of the high esteem in which deceased was held.  The Pall-bearers were Messurs. Peter Binnie, John McDowell, George Nurse, John Sinclair, Duncan Sinclair and Willaim Sinclair.
