He was a man of magnificent physique, and in all the manly sports which require strength and dexterity was unrivalled; his particular delight being archery. A fuller account of him will appear in Historiettes.
The line of Roslin is generally assumed by peerage and other writers to be extinct, but it seems scarcely credible that there are no male descendants extant of the eight sons of Sir Oliver, the eight sons of the first Sir William, or the ten sons of Sir William of Pentland. They are perhaps to be found in the Isles, where Hercules, son of Alexander Saintcler of Cuthilton and Little Deny, is discovered acquiring notoriety as an iconoclast; and Edward Sinclair of Dryden, the "Gudeman of Ethay", left issue several sons. It is stated in Hay's "Genealogie" that Henry, third son to Sir Oliver Saintclere of Roslin, by Isabella Levingston, was governor of the Castle of Bergen in Norway, where his arms are seen upon that part of the Castle that was built in his time; and in the Holy Cross Church of Bergen his name is written. He married Gurena Guldelove, by whom he had several children, settled in Norway, whose posterity remain there to this day. This may be the Henry to whom Sir Oliver assigned the lands of Braidle in 1512, but it is generally understood that the only Henry, son of Sir Oliver, was the Bishop of Ross, who could not have been identical with the Governor of Bergen Castle, nor was the stone Bergen Castle then erected.
