"John returned from Montana, U.S.A. in 1911. He was at Tamnaghmore House when his father died in 1912. John lives at Tamnaghmore and farms it."
[DMS]

The following is from a talk given by William Henry Sinton (1922 - 1986)
at Tamnaghmore Friends Meeting House on the occasion of a visit by Friends from South Belfast.

"The next phase in the life of the meeting could be said to have started in the early 1920's. The legendary W. P. Nicholson was conducting an evangelical campaign in Portadown and my parents, John H. and Dorothy M. Sinton, were converted at those meetings. They entered the life of Tamnaghmore meeting with zeal and enthusiasm and, as a result of their efforts, Christian Endeavour was introduced to Tamnaghmore. In its hey day there were three C. E. Societies, all large and flourishing. The Senior and Junior Societies still meet regularly."
