Birth:
Error alert: There is a big problem with the dates given in the references. It says Helen was married in 1728 and one of her children, Robert, was born in 1774. Even if Helen was married as young as age 14, she still would have been 60 years old when Robert was born. I don't know which date is incorrect, so even though these dates are impossible, I'm leaving them as shown in the references until I get more accurate data.

Notes:

George Munro, tacksman of Fyrish, was the ancestor of the Munros of Knockancuirn.
