"...William [137] is said by Mackenzie to be father of Daniel merchant in Glasgow whose son Alexander (1731-1809) was father of Sir Thomas governor of Madras; but records show that Alexander's father was Daniel, baptd 2 Dec 1697, son of Alexander Munro and Bethia Johnston, tailor in Glasgow, burgh treasurer, bailie and deacon convener who d Feb 1764."

Alexander was a merchant in Glasgow trading chiefly with Virginia. His wife was the sister of Dr. Stark, a well-known anatomist.

Alexander was a Glasgow merchant, whose dealings, chiefly with Virginia, were for many years carried on with great success, but in consequence of the Act of Confiscation passed by the Congress of the United States in 1776 he was reduced from a state of affluence to one of comparative indigence.

Ref. 2 says that Alexander's parents were Daniel Munro and Christian Wyllie, but R.W. Munro says that is an error and that Alexander's father was a different Daniel.
