Notes:

Dr. Henry Monro received his early education at Harrow. He entered Oriel College, Oxford, in 1834, where he graduated B.A. on 6 Jun 1839, B.M. on 14 Jun 1844, and M.D. in 1863. (It is believed that "1863" is incorrect.)

He was elected Fellow of the Royal College of Physicians in 1848, Censor in 1861, 1862, and 1863, and Councillor in 1864-1865, and 1875-1877. He was a member of the council of the Royal Medical Chirurgical Society, and of the Medical Psychological Association. He served as President of the latter in 1864-1865. He served as Consulting Physician to St. Luke's Hospital in London for nearly thirty years.

He lived at 13 Cavendish Square in London and was fifth physician in direct descent in the London branch of the family of Fyrish, Contullich, and Kildermorie, who attained an eminent position in the same profession - since 1772, a period of more than a century and a half - a circumstance quite unique, it is believe, in the annals of English medical science.

He published "An Essay on Stammering: its Nature and Treatment," in 1849; "Remarks on Insanity: its Nature and Treatment," in 1851; "Articles on Reform in Private Lunatic Asylums," in 1856; on the "Nomenclature of Insanity"; and other works.

In 1846, he founded the House of Charity in Rose Street, Soho Square, London - a house for the destitute and friendless, chiefly those whose distress and helplessness was brought on through no fault of their own - and for forty years he worked at this flourishing institution with unfailing energy and devotion.

Henry's protrait, and those of his four distinguished medical predecessors, belonging in direct male line to the same family, adorned the walls of the Royal College of Physicians, those of his father and himself painted by Dr. Henry, and all the five presented by him.

Notes:

Dr. Edward Thomas Monro received his early education at Harrow. He entered Oriel College, Oxford, where he graduated B.A., Second Class, on 4 May 1809, M.A. on 28 Jun 1810, B.M. on 24 Oct 1811, and M.D. on 25 Jan 1814.

He was admitted as a Candidate of the College of Physicians on 27 Dec 1816, and was Censor in 1819, 1829, and 1837. He delivered the Harveian Oration in 1834, and was an Elect on 30 Sep 1842.

Upon the resignation of his father in Jun 1816, he was appointed Principal Physician of Bethlehem Hospital, being the fourth in direct succession, from father to son, in that highly important and responsible office.

He served as treasurer of the College of Physicians, London, from 1845 to 1856.

A remarkable feature of his professional life is that having attended some four hundred commissions and trials in lunacy, only on two occasions did his evidence differ from the verdict, and in both these instances the decisions arrived at were afterwards set aside. His evidence was remarkable for clearness and force, and was much valued by the legal profession.
