| Notes |
- Dr. Robert Munro lived in Dingwall, Scotland. He was the second son of Alexander, Laird of Killachoan.
Robert was a physician by profession, and as such joined the royal forces, under Lord Loudon, against Bonnie Prince Charlie, the Pretender. He served the whole of the long and fatiguing campaign of 1745, suffered exceedingly from exposure and privation, and died from the consequences the following year, quite a young man. After his death, his widow resided at Drummond, about two miles from Fowlis. She was an amiable woman, highly educated, and beloved by all who knew her. A slight accident, which occurred a few years after her husband's death, unexpectedly proved fatal, and she died after a short illness, at the early age of thirty years, leaving two children, Henry, born in 1730 and Alexander, a year or two later.
