Andrew Munro

Notes:

Andrew took part in a riot which occurred in Dingwall in 1721, and was obliged to go into exile. He went to the Netherlands and joined the Scottish Brigade there. He proved himself to be a very efficient and able soldier and rose to the rank of Colonel and Brigadier of his regiment, commanding it throughout the war between Holland and France.

The Scotish Brigade, as such, was disbanded and taken into the service of Great Britain when Colonel Andrew Munro retired in 1793. Andrew returned home and took up residence with his son-in-law, the Rev. Angus Bethune, in the manse of Alness, where he died about 1809.

Family/Spouse: Alexander Strath. Alexander was born est 1777 in Of, Tain, Scotland; and died. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Hector studied at King's College and the University of Aberdeen. He received his M.A. on 27 Mar 1800. He was licensed by the Presbytery of Dingwall on 31 May 1802. The following April, the Hon. Maria Hay Mackenzie of Cromarty presented him to the church and parish of Alness, as his father's successor, and he was inducted there on 28 Sep 1803 at the early age of 21 years.

He had not completed his studies when the parish became vacant, but his father's family was respected so much by the parishioners that they agreed to prolong the vacancy in order that Hector might get the appointment. He remained minister of Alness for nearly 17 years and then was transferred to Dingwall on 29 Jul 1820. His move away from Alness caused very general regret.

He was of kindly disposition, refined manners, and bore a very high character both as a minister and a gentleman. He always took a deep interest in the material as well as in the spiritual welfare of his people, and his many excellent and amiable qualities secured for him the esteem and goodwill of all classes, especially of the poor, by whom he was much beloved and highly respected.

He served as minister of Dingwall for 29 years.
