 Abt 1771 - 1809 (~ 38 years)
Generation: 1
| 1. |  Andrew Monroe was born about 1771; died in 1809 in Canonsburg, Washington Co., Pennsylvania, USA. Notes:
Andrew was born in Canonsburg, Pennsylvania in 1817. Different references give different specific dates. Ref 4 says 17 Jul, ref 2 says 15 Jul, ref 3 says "15 or 18 Jul."
Family tradition says that he worked as a drover. In about 1840, he passed through the town of Moorefield, Ohio. He met a girl there and fell in love with her, so when he finished his job as a drover, he returned to Moorefield, married her and settled there. His brother, John, also moved to Moorefield at the same time and also married a local girl.
Andrew is found on the 1850 census listed as a plasterer with $300 in property living with his family in Moorefield.
He served in the military during the American Civil War.
Andrew made a will which said he was about to travel on a voyage to Europe. The will named his wife and two sons and appointed as executor "my friend Doctor Samuel Murdock of Canonsburg."

| 2. | Charles Monroe  (1.Andrew1) was born about 1794; and died. Notes:
Proof that Charles was the father of Andrew is not too strong.
Entries from the Washington County, Pennsylvania Appearance Docket from the early 1820's shows that Charles was an insolvent debtor. It appears that he never owned any property in Washington County.
