| 2. | John Monroe was born on 10 Nov 1749 in , Westmoreland Co., Virginia, USA (son of George Monroe and Lucy); died on 28 May 1837 in , Ohio, Kentucky, USA. Notes:
John served in the American Revolutionary War after which he moved to Kentucky.
His death date is in doubt. One source gives it as 25 May 1837 and another as 28 Jan 1798. It appears that the former date is correct. One reference gives his wife's death date as 24 Jan 1796. She was from Cumberland Co., Virginia.
Some references say he died in Westmoreland County, Virginia.
