    Notes:

    Ref: The Munro Tree (1734) M/4

    Ref: "The Munro Tree (1734)" by R. W. Munro - M/4

    "John Munro of Balconie married Katherine daughter to Robert Baron of Fowlis slain at Pinkie by whom he had Hugh Mr Robert John and five daughters one of quhich married Urquhart of Davistown another Clunes Bailzie of Cromarty another Simpson of Bannans another Denuine of [? Ken--]."

    "John of Urquhart d Oct 1597, will mentions brother Farquhar; sons Robert and John have not been satisfactorily identified, as former can hardly be min of Abertarff who 'married' Simon Fraser and dowager Lady Lovat 1697..."

    Robert studied for the ministry, and after passing his secondary trials before the Presbytery of Abertarff, and on 23 Feb 1676, he was recommended by that body for ordination. His ordination took place on 2 Mar and he was admitted to Abertarff on 12 Mar.

    Robert is best known as the minister who married Simon Fraser and Lady Amelia Murray, daughter of the Marquis of Atholl, then Dowager Lady Lovat. The marriage was performed "under the most brutal and repulsive circumstances," and Simon was subsequently sentenced to death and his estates forfeited, for Lady Amelia had been forced into the marriage.

    Robert died without children and probably unmarried, a few weeks after performing the forced marriage, but nearly a year later, he was named, among others, for his part in the outrage upon the Dowager Lady Lovat. None of the defendants appeared in court, but they all were put to the horn, their moveable goods and gear forfeited and were declared outlaws and fugitives from the law.

    Error alert: Mackenzie says Robert died about 1697, but given other dates in this and other references, that date seems much too late.
