Check the provenance of this image. The donor is probably D. B. Montgomery, a descendant of Dr. Sinclair, who donated a number of photographs of the Sinclair and Henderson family to the St. Marys Museum in the 1980s. The Museum has extensive genealogical information about this family on file.
I did donate this photo of the Dr. John Sinclair family in 1991. The family had moved over the years 1893-4 from St. Marys to St. Thomas, No. Dakota, as Dr. John Sinclair retired from his St. Marys medical practice and moved West. He was not sure whether he would remain in Dakota or return eventually to St. Marys. He leased his home (Mt. Pascoe) to his brother-in-law, William Dale, who resided there for many years. Dr. John Sinclair returned several times a year to St. Marys after 1894 as he checked on local farm property investments and visited his many local relatives who continued to live in St. Marys. (His father's Sinclair Farm remained actively farmed and in family hands until 1990's.) Dr. John Sinclair and his family and several siblings are buried in St. Marys Cemetery.
