  • Notes 
    • **********
      The following is from the True reference:

      It appears that both Elizabeth and Alexander, her brother, added an "e" to the end of their names, but both were listed in the Pictou Census of 10 April 1871 as Munro without the "e".

      In the Descendents of Joseph Kilgore (1690-1764) the spelling is listed as "Monroe", however, in her own hand writing she signed the Precious Thoughts Birthday Book as "Munroe", which does add an "e" at the end of the spelling her father used but does not change the "u" to "o".

      John White thinks he knows why she left Nova Scotia and came to Lisbon Falls, Maine. Her cousin Eugene McIntosh lived in Lisbon Falls. He thinks she came to get a job. She did housekeeping work. eugene lived across the street from Ellery Jones. Ida Kilgore Jones' second husbnad. Ida's daughter Evelyn Jones White is the wife of the above mentioned John White.
