Generation: 2

  1. 2.  Isaac Charles Monroe was born on 21 Jan 1818 in Claysville, Ohio (son of Daniel Monroe and Mary Brush); died on 26 Oct 1888 in Rich Hill Twp., Muskingum Co., Ohio.

    Notes:

    Isaac's first wife was Elizabeth Frenifrock (or Arenuprock). One reference says his third wife, Mary was born in Pennsylvania and gives Isaac's name as Israel. The Madsen reference says Isaac and Mary Neeland were married 11 Nov 1845.

    There is a strong suspicion that this is a composite of two or more people. Information from two separate entries in the 1850 census have been used here. One entry says Isaac was born about 1799 and was living in Preble, Pike County, Ohio. A second entry says Israel (not Isaac) was born about 1818 and was a farmer living in Meigs, Muskingum County, Ohio with $2500 in property.

    A third reference has combined data from the other two to form this record.

    It is questionable whether this Isaac was a child of Daniel Monroe and whether all the marriages and children are from the same man.

Generation: 4

  1. 8.  Robert Monroe was born in 1750 in , , , Scotland; died on 23 Apr 1803 in , Hampshire Co., Virginia, USA.

    Notes:

    References differ on Robert's birthplace. Some say he came to New Jersey from Scotland with his parents. Others say he was born in New Jersey in about 1750. One reference says his father was a first cousin to President James Monroe, but unsubstantiated claims like this abound.

    He had eleven or twelve children. Four of his sons became Methodist ministers.

    He was supposed to have traded a yoke of oxen for a farm in New Jersey. But it proved to be on a mountain.

    in 1785 or 1795, he moved to Allegany County, Maryland (one reference says Alleghany County, Virginia, and the Eldredge reference says it was probably Cumberland County). He bought property just across the Potomac River in Hampshire County, Virginia (now Mineral County or Hampshire County, West Virginia) and died in Hampshire County, Virginia (now West Virginia). The property was sold by his son, Robert, in 1810.

    One reference says his wife died in Rich Hill Township, Muskingum County, Ohio.

    His mother's name may have been Mehitible.
