    **********

    General William Munro was a British officer in Mediterranean and Caribbean campaigns. He was the "father" of the Munros in the British West Indies and Florida. He served at the seige of Minorca during the Napoleonic conflict, and in England and Ireland during the Rebellion. He was the Military Commander of Barbados Surinam.

    He was Commissariat General of Halifax during the time when Queen Victoria's father, the Duke of Kent, commanded the troops there.

    It is said that he was the son of the Chief of Clan Munro which would mean his father was either Robert Munro, 24th Baron of Foulis, or Harry Munro, 25th Baron of Foulis. However, neither man is recorded as having a son named William.

  1. 2.  Capt. James MunroCapt. James Munro Descendancy chart to this point (1.William1) was born in 1770 in , , , Scotland; died in 1857 in , Harbour Island, , Bahamas.

    Notes:

    Capt. James Munro was a colonial receiver and had a shipbuilding business in Scotland and the Bahamas. "He came here from Halifax toward the end of the 1700's with three of his brothers".

    He was married twice and is said to have fathered 27 children, many of whom died in infancy. His second wife, Ann, was a seamstress.

    He became Postmaster General and was stationed at Sandrill Point, Acklins Island, Bahamas, and not at Nassau because all the mail from England came on warships which called there on their way to the West Indies through the Crooked Island passage.

    James left Acklins Island and moved to Harbour Island as collector of customs. He owned Salt Ponds and rum Cay and had shares in some ships, one of which used to run to Liverpool.

    His middle name or nickname may have been Edwin. One reference says he died at age 94, but the birth and death years given in another reference indicate that he was about 87.
