Dr. John Monro, F.R.C.P. was educated at Merchant Tailors' School from 1731 to 1733, at which time he was elected a scholar of St. John's College, Oxford. He received his B.A. from Oxford on 13 May 1737 and his M.A. on 11 Jul 1740. He became a Fellow of the College and in Apr 1741, he was nominated as one of the Radcliffe Travelling Fellows, on which University foundation he continued until 1751.
He received his B.M. on 10 Dec 1743 and entered the University of Leyden on 10 Mar 1745. He visited Paris, Italy, and Germany, and during his absence, he received his M.D. from Oxford on 27 Jun 1747, having migrated from St. John's to University College.
On 24 Jul 1751, he was appointed Joint-Physician of Bethlehem and Bridewell Hospital in London, as an assistant to his father, whose health was declining. When his father died the following year, he was appointed his successor.
John and his first wife, Elizabeth Culling, were married by John's brother, Rev. Thomas Monro, B.D.
John was a Candidate of the College of Physicians on 25 Jun 1752, and a Fellow on 25 Jun 1753. He was Censor in 1754, 1759, 1763, 1768, 1778, and 1785, and delivered the Harveian Lecture in 1757. His only published writings were his "Harveian Oration," delivered in 1757 and a pamphlet entitled "Remarks on Dr. Battie's Treatise on Madness," a feeling tribute to his father's memory.
He restricted the practice of his profession almost exclusively to insanity, in the treatment of which he was considered to have attained a greater eminence and success than any of his contemporaries.
In Jan 1783, he had an attack of paralysis, after which he gradually retired from his practice.
He lived for a long time at 53 Bedford Square, but in the beginning of 1791, he took up residence at Hadley, Near Barnet, County Middlesex, where he died.

17. | Dr. Thomas Monro (7.John2, 1.James1) was born in 1759 in London, , Greater London, England; died on 14 May 1833 in Bushey, Middlesex, England; was buried in Churchyard, Bushey, Middlesex, England. Notes:
Thomas received his early education at Stanmore, Middlesex, under Dr. Parr, and at Harrow. He entered Oriel College, Oxford, where he received his B.A. on 4 Dec 1780, M.A. on 15 Jul 1783, B.M. on 14 Jan 1785, and M.D. on 24 May 1787.
He was admitted as a Fellow of the Royal College of Physicians on 19 Apr 1791, was Censor in 1792, 1799 and 1812, Harveian Orator in 1799, and was named Elect on 28 Nov 1811. On 19 Jul 1787, he was appointed Assistant Physician of Bethlehem Hospital and became Principal Physician on 2 Feb 1792, succeeding his father in that post. He was Principal Physican until Jun 1816 when he resigned in favor of his son, Dr. Edward Thomas Monro. Soon after resigning, he retired from the practice of his profession
Thomas was a devoted admirer of the fine arts, and the patron of Joseph M. W. Turner, the celebrated English landscape painter, William Hunt, the eminent water-color artist, and others almost equally distinguished. John Ruskin, the great art critic and author, says in his "Notes" on Turner, dated Mar 1878, that "his true master was Dr. Monro; to the practical teaching of that first patron, and the wise simplicity of method of water-color study, in which he was disciplined by him and companioned by Giston, the healthy and constant development of the greater power is primarily to be attributed; the greatness of the power itself, it is impossible to overestimate."
Thomas attended King George III during his last illness.

41. | Edward Thomas Monro (17.Thomas3, 7.John2, 1.James1) was born in Nov 1789; died on 25 Jan 1856. Notes:
Dr. Edward Thomas Monro received his early education at Harrow. He entered Oriel College, Oxford, where he graduated B.A., Second Class, on 4 May 1809, M.A. on 28 Jun 1810, B.M. on 24 Oct 1811, and M.D. on 25 Jan 1814.
He was admitted as a Candidate of the College of Physicians on 27 Dec 1816, and was Censor in 1819, 1829, and 1837. He delivered the Harveian Oration in 1834, and was an Elect on 30 Sep 1842.
Upon the resignation of his father in Jun 1816, he was appointed Principal Physician of Bethlehem Hospital, being the fourth in direct succession, from father to son, in that highly important and responsible office.
He served as treasurer of the College of Physicians, London, from 1845 to 1856.
A remarkable feature of his professional life is that having attended some four hundred commissions and trials in lunacy, only on two occasions did his evidence differ from the verdict, and in both these instances the decisions arrived at were afterwards set aside. His evidence was remarkable for clearness and force, and was much valued by the legal profession.

42. | Henry Monro (17.Thomas3, 7.John2, 1.James1) was born on 30 Aug 1791 in London, , Greater London, England; died on 5 Mar 1814. Notes:
Henry inherited his father's taste for fine arts, and became an artist of considerable fame. He was educated at Harrow and entered the Navy, but quit before he was formally placed on the books of the ship he had joined. For a short time, he had a wish to join the army, but at last decided on art, and in 1806, he was admitted as a student of the Royal Academy.
When a little advanced, he attempted portraiture, chiefly in crayons, and there is a portrait by him of his father in this style preserved at the College of Physicians, of more than ordinary merit. He then began painting in oil, making studies for certain great works which he projected, and occasionally sketching from nature. In 1811, he exhibited at the Academy "A Laughing Boy," "Boys at Marbles," and some portraits of the same class in the following year.
He visited Scotland in 1811, where he met with a severe accident by falling off his horse. The injury was neglected and he suffered very severely for several months. When we was restored to health, he painted "Othello, Iago, and Desdemona" in 1812, exhibited at the Academy in the following year, and at the British Institution, "The Disgrace of Wolsey," for which the directors awarded him a premium of 100 guineas. These were the only pictures of a high-class character painted by him, but he left some clever drawings on grey paper in black and white chald, and some etchings.
In Jan 1814, he was seized with a fatal malady of which he died, unmarried, on 5 Mar, in his 23rd year.

Ref 1 says Vere was born in 1801 and died in 1851 in the 41st year of his age. Either a date or the calculation is wrong. From the dates of birth of Vere's siblings, it appears that both his birth date and age at death are incorrect.
Vere was not married.
