Mackenzie, Simon (I606)
 
11922 Sinclair and John were twins
Also know as jack.
His first job was as a Page Boy at the newly opened Playhouse Cinema, Edinburgh. Leaving the cinema he became an apprentice butcher.
When he was about 17 he disappeared from home and his parents called the police. The police found him at the Glencorse Army Barracks of the Scots Guards, he had joined up. Jack was underage but had falsified his age by altering his Birth Certificate. The police told his mother that he would be better off in the army, as he was sure to be laid off from the butcher's shop, as soon as his apprenticeship was up.
And so John became a Professional Soldier.
Jack served in the tropics of Africa and it was here that a Tse-Tse fly bit him. The bite became infected and he ended up with a large depression on his temple. A cancer developed, as well. This was treated with cobalt radium treatment. It was not entirely successful but a few years later a Pakistani doctor treated and cured it without the need for further radium treatment.
By 1944 he was a Sergeant Major stationed at Redford Barracks, Edinburgh.
During the Korean War he served in Korea as a quartermaster.

The following story was authenticated from three different sources.
"The Scots were supplied with whisky from one of the Scotch whisky distillers. The American forces were not allowed spirits. The Scots were sleeping in Bell Tents. (Not very comfortable for the forthcoming winter in Korea.) The Americans had Nissen huts.
John had a jeep loaded up with whisky, drove 100 miles to the American quartermaster stores and spoke to the quartermaster in charge and offered the jeep load of whisky as part payment/exchange on the supply of 6 Nissen huts. The agreement being that when they huts were delivered 100 miles up the line there would be another jeep load of whisky supplied, including the jeep. Agreement being reached plans were supplied to John for the foundations of the huts. John returned to his base, organised an area to be cleared, foundations laid. The huts arrived and were erected by the Americans, whisky and jeep were handed over, and so 600 British troops slept dry and warm that winter."

Reminiscences from Ben Fox, his son-in-law
After he left the army, about 1956, he became a Police Officer in Kent. He then transferred to Special Branch.
As an officer in Special Branch he was very much concerned when Harold Wilson became Prime Minister as he felt the country was going communist. Come the revolution he felt that all Special Branch would be in danger.

Jack became a Security Officer until his retirement. He was found dead at his home at 13 Pomona Rd., St. Helier, Jersey. He had died of coronary thrombosis due to ischaemic heart disease.
Aitken, John (I8392)
 
11923 Sinclair and John were twins. Sinclairina Aitkern was named after Sinclair. Aitken, Sinclair (I8393)
 
11924 Some doubt arises as to what her name and age really was. On her Marriage Certificate her name is given as Mary. On her husbands Death Certificate her name is given as Dorothy. And on her own Death Certificate her name is given as Frances May.

The Informant of the death of May Francis Stokes was her son Francis D Aitken. 
Stokes, May Frances (I8942)
 
11925 Some give his name as Edward, so this name has not been resolved.
 
Stickney, Dr. William (I7931)
 
11926 Sometime after 1942 Jean and Jimmy seperated and Jean lived in Reading, BKS, England.

Notes from terry Stewart
In 1993, I found David Aitken at his home at "Becathlaw".
Saying that he knew very little about the family he would take me to his "brother's" place. He took me to Jimmy Shanks home.
This house, Lathallen House by Polmont, had been a mansion once owned by Salvensons the Ship Builder. Now the house was boarded up. The grounds were like a building site with scrap lying all around. Jimmy was variously described as a General Dealer or Scrap-metal Dealer,
Jimmy no longer actually lived in the main house, preferring to live in a cottage on the estate. When I called there was no one at home. The door, to the cottage, was open and there was a roaring fire in the main room. The main room had been turned into a bedroom. Junk was piled high to the ceiling against all four walls.
Three televisions were in the room sitting on top of each other. One of them blared out the horse racing. But no one was home.
I phoned back later and spoke to a lady who turned out to be Jimmy's de-facto.
She was the one who told me about Kate Manson, Jimmy's sister.
I never did get to meet Jimmy as he was in hospital and died soon after.
Robbers had invaded their home and Jimmy and his de-facto had been tied up. They then threatened to cut off his de-facto's fingers to get her rings off.
Jimmy suffered a nervous breakdown and was hospitalised dying about two months later. He died at The Royal Infirmary, Falkirk, on 25 Sep 1994, of broncho pneumonia.
Stuart McCracken, his partner, reported his death. Stuart also gave his own home address as Lathallan House.
