Notes |
- Ref: Clan Munro files - Munro, James Donald
Thomas Brock Munro, who was named for the General Brock in Ontario contemporary to his time, and his twin brother, William Thomas Munro, were born at the home and "Trading Post" of their parents near Caraquet, New Brunswick. Records of their birth and baptism exist as affidavits in New Carlisle.
Services of Clergy were limited to occasional itinerant or circuit-riding protestant ministers at this time. Children were frequently baptized at home by parents or others, especially if life was precarious or health was poor, or delayed until travel to distant churches was arranged. If available, any Priest or Minister was acceptable for services, regardless of religious denomination. Registration of births was not required by the Government, and common practice was recording by the officiating clergyman of births, marriages and burials. Eventually these records found their way to Provincial or County listing if not lost in some catastrophe. Documentation by the Catholic Clergy and Churches was meticulously maintained and forwarded to the Bishop of the area's archives. That both Thomas and William had been baptized is quite certain, as they were faithful and stalwart members of the protestant church in their communities of Paspebiac, New Carlisle and Port Daniel.
