    Most genealogists say that the wife of George Munroe was named Sarah Harrington, but the Furbush reference argues persuasively that her name was Sarah Mooer, the sister of the wives of John Munroe and Daniel Munroe, George's brothers. This marriage is cited in "Torrey's Early Marriages" p. 514 and in "The Essex Antiquarian" Vol 2, p. 152.
