He married Alma Holiday French in 1923. In the 1940 Census, he lived in San Angelo, Texas with In-laws.	Monroe, William Osmond (I5369)
84203	William owned property south of the Anglican Church at New Carlisle. The street west of the church was the west boundary of the property. Later he traded with Mr. Edward Caldwell for the property in Paspebiac where he made his home. It was here that he started to clear his farm in a thick wooded country of maple, birch, spruce, pine and cedar which was of little value in those days. The lumber for the buildings were sawed with a whip saw at the old saw pit. Shingles were split from cedar logs and shaved with the draw knife. He later gave the eastern part of the property to his son William. While on a visit to the Carr Harris home at Bathurst, William became seriously ill. The doctor was summoned, but he pronounced the case hopeless, and William died shortly after. He was 75 years old.

84215	William served as a soldier in the Revolutionary War. In order to secure his pension, he requested his neighbor, General John C. Hunter, to certify his service. General Hunter's letter confirmed his service and also mentioned that William had raised eight children. In 1850, William was a farmer with $3500 in property living with his family in Washington, Ohio. It is quite possible that this record is a composite of two individuals. Guilford says William was born about 1776.

84222	William served in the Lunenburg County, Virginia Militia in 1758 during the French and Indian War. He is recorded as buying land in Halifax county in 1762. He sold his Halifax land in two pieces in 1768 and in these two deeds, William is listed as William Monroe of Lunenburg county. He bought land in Lunenburg county in 1762 but does not appear again in Lunenburg county records. The same land that he bought there was sold in 1794 by a John Monroe who is thought to be his son. On 15 Mar 1768, William witnessed a deed in Lunenburg county. The very next deed recorded involved Obadiah Hooper, the father-in-law of Johnson Monroe. This indicates that there was a close relationship between William and Johnson. Some researchers speculate that William may have been the father of Johnson Monroe [699]. Others adamantly disagree.

84227	William served nearly four years as a soldier in the Revolutionary War, first from 6 Apr to 23 May 1777 under Captain Edward Griswold in Colonel Thomas Bilding's regiment, Connecticut Volunteers. He was discharged in Peekskill, New York. He next enlisted for three years in Captain Harmon's company of Colonel John Durkee's Fourth Regiment of Connecticut Volunteers from which he was honorably discharged in 1780 in Morristown, New Jersey. During his first year he served as a private, then was transferred to Captain Seth Phillip's company of the same regiment, in which he served as a fifer for two years. He engaged in the battles of Germantown, Fort Mifflin, Monmouth and Stoney Point. After his discharge in 1780 he served for six months as orderly sergeant to his old Colonel John Durkee. Later he served a three month's term on a sloop in New York. His interest in military affairs did not abate with the revolution. He moved in 1792 from Windsor, Connecticut to Chenango County, New York, and settled there on a tract on which the court house in the city of Norwich now stands. There he joined the State Militia serving as ensign, lieutenant, major, and lieutenant colonel between 1797 and 1809. By reason of this service he became generally known as Colonel Monroe. He served three terms as sheriff of Chenango County and as the member of the Assembly from that county during the session of 1816. William moved to a farm in the nearby town of Plymouth, New York, where he built a log house and lived until he died. He, his mother and other members of the Monroe family were buried in a cemetery on his farm between Norwich and the village of Plymouth. His first wife, Sally, was a descendant of John and Eleanor Billington of the Mayflower. Her tombstone in the family cemetery in Chenango County, bears this inscription: "In memory of Mrs. Sally Monroe, consort of Colonel William Monroe, d. Feb. 19, 1811 in the 46th year of her age."
