    • **********
      (The following is from a letter from Elijah-Brent Alan Monroe)

      «i»General Henry Monro/Munro - Blaris - b. 1758, descendent of General Robert Munro who came to Ireland in 1642, ran a draper's shop in Lisburn, general of United Irishmen, hanged in Lisburn 16 Jun 1798 after Battle of Ballynahinch.«/i»
      **********

      Error alert: Some references say Henry was a 2nd great grandson of Major General Robert Munro, who seized Belfast, Ireland on 14 May 1644. Other researchers say he was the 2nd great grandson of Robert's brother, Daniel.
