| 6. | Isaac Monroe, M. D. was born in 1767 in Shrewsbury, Worcester Co., Massachusetts, USA; was christened on 2 Nov 1769 (son of Philip Munroe and Abigail Parker); died in 1826 in Hamilton, Madison Co., New York, USA. Notes:
Like his eldest brother Philip, Isaac studied medicine. There is a family tradition that he attended the University of Edinburgh medical school in Scotland. A search of the medical records showed no trace of Isaac, but many medical students attended lectures of the famous Doctor Alexander Monro without actually being enrolled in the medical school. During Isaac's time it would have been Alexander Monro Secundus 1733-1817.
Isaac and his wife, Mary, lived in Mary's hometown of Wendell, Massachusetts until 1793 when they moved to Westmoreland, New Hampshire. In 1801 they settled in Surry, New Hampshire. In 1816, Dr. Isaac Monroe moved his family to Hamilton, New York.

| 12. | Philip Munroe was born on 26 Feb 1718 in Lexington, Middlesex Co., Massachusetts, USA (son of Ens. William Munroe and Johanna Russell); died on 14 Dec 1790 in Surry, Cheshire Co., New Hampshire, USA; was buried in Surry, Cheshire Co., New Hampshire, USA. Notes:
Phillip's four oldest children, his first wife, Mary and his mother Johanna all died at about the same time, evidently in an epidemic. His last surviving child at the time was dead by 23 Dec 1749. At this time, Philip was 31 years old. He must have married his second wife, Abigail, between 1749 and 1753. From the 35th to 60th year of his age, 11 more children were born to him and Abigail. She was about 22 when the first was born and 47 at the birth of their last child.
Philip was of Shrewsbury, Boylston and Rutland, Massachusetts. The first Shrewsbury deeds call Philip Munroe of Lexington, Massachusetts. A little later he was called of Shrewsbury. There are 18 land transfers of places that he bought and sold. He lived on one of the places called the 'Roe farm', which was still standing in 1963.
He was living on the "Hill" in what is now Boylston, but was Shrewsbury North Precinct in his time. Two of his children were baptised in the church of the North Precinct or Second Parish on the same day, 2 Nov 1769.
Philip Munroe started acquiring land in Shrewsbury Area about 1763, he sold 5 acres to Jonathan Weelock in Shrewsbury in 1763, and in 1765 he purchased a piece of land from Benjamin Tainter. In the deeds he is called "Philip Munro a labourer". Today he would be called a land speculator. Most of the deeds call him of Shrewsbury, two call him of Rutland.
Two deeds establish his connection to Surry, New Hampshire. The first deed dated 22 Dec 1789, in which he is called a physician, and the second dated 29 Dec 1789. He had established himself of Surry, New Hampshire by about 1783.
