| Notes |
- 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.
