of Lowick, Northumberland

Is there a connection to the other SINTONs of Northumberland, or those just over the border in Scotland?
Descendants of the John married to Catherine NEWTON went to NZ and one married into my ROWE tree
NB Not all relationships shown have been fully confirmed.
It would be great to hear from descendants who have found some of the elusive evidence, eg Thomas' marriage to Frances ?COWELL?
