    «i»Reverend Joseph Monroe was born in Hudson, New York. He attended college at Madison, Hamilton County, New York. The college was a Baptist University founded in 1820 as the Hamilton Literary and Theological Institution. It changed its name to Madison University in 1846, and to Colgate in 1890. This college was chartered and moved to Rochester, New York in 1850. Joseph then apparently moved to the Rochester area, as in 1822 he became the pastor of the First Baptist church of Henrietta and served there until 1827. This church society was organized in 1812 and was the first in Henrietta, being founded 6 years before the town itself was organized. «/i»

    «i»Noted photographer in Rochester, New York, working in daguerreotype plates, and at age 27 took a famous daguerreotype photograph of Jenny Lind at a concert under the direction of P.T. Barnum. This was the first picture to be made of the famous singer. His four sons, and three daughters all were professionally connected with photography. Myron Monroe married Laura Anna Gage in 1845. She died at age 20 in childbirth when Harvey Gage Monroe was born.

    Myron Hawley Monroe married his second wife, Mary Elizabeth Hibbard of Henrietta, New York on June 14, 1847. Married by Reverend Porter McKinstry. Witnesses were Daniel Galentine, and Margaret Lawson.

    Myron Monroe was born in Henrietta, New York and his mother Sophia Dunham Monroe died at age 19 soon after his birth, and he lived with his grandmother, Sophia Dunham and with his uncle Seneca Dunham. For 30 years he was a successful photographer, but later in life entered the ministry. He became blind but retained the ability to play the violin, and died at age 88 at the home of his daughter, Elizabeth Lizzie Altenburg.«/i»
    **********

    In 1850, he was working as a shoemaker in New York.

    In Rochester, New York, USA in 1877, a young bank clerk called George Eastman planned to take a summer vacation in Santo Domingo, and a colleague suggested he should make a photographic record. Eastman bought all the necessary equipment for the wet plate process and took lessons from a professional photographer, G. H. Munroe, the son of a long-established Rochester photographer Myron H. Monroe. Eastman never made the trip, but it was the start of his long and eventually profitable involvement with the medium. He found the collodion process complex and started experiments to try to simplify it.
