"...son Robert said to be Captain who m 1703 Christian dr of Hugh Fraser of Eskadale and was father of John min of South Uist and then Eddrachillis d 1755."
Robert joined the army and attained the rank of Captain in Dumbarton's Regiment, later called the Royal Regiment of 1st Foot of the British line. At the same time, his uncle, General Hugh Mackay of Scourie was also a Captain in the same regiment.
In 1672, King Charles II, lent the regiment to King Louis of France, and Robert took part in the expedition against the United Provinces. Captain Mackay disapproved of King Louis' goals and resigned his commission. He then entered the service of the States-General, and was appointed Captain in the Scottish Dutch Brigade. His nephew, Robert of Erribol accompanied him.
In 1685, the Brigade was called home to assist in quelling Monmouth's rebellion, on which occasion Captain Mackay was created a Major-General and appointed a member of the Scottish Privy Council. General Mackay and Captain Robert Munro were subsequently engaged in Scotland and Ireland, fighting for William, Prince of Orange.
After retiring from the army, Robert was married and raised a large family of sons. All of his sons except his heir, John, went abroad.

16. | Rev. John Munro (11.Robert3, 8.Euphemia2, 1.Hugh1) was born about 1709 in Of, South Uist, Scotland; died on 13 Feb 1755 in Prob., Eddrachillis, Scotland. Notes:
Ref: "The Munro Tree (1734)" by R. W. Munro - M/31
"...son Robert said to be Captain who m 1703 Christian dr of Hugh Fraser of Eskadale and was father of John min of South Uist and then Eddrachillis d 1755."
John studied for the Church at the University, and at King's College, Aberdeen, where he graduated M.A. in 1728. He served for a time as chaplain in the family of George Lord Reay. After receiving his license from the Presbytery of Tongue on 8 Aug 1732, he was ordained and admitted as minister of South Uist on 14 Jan 1737.
South Uist was predominantly Catholic having some 100 Protestants in a population of about 1300 adults. His position there for nearly eight years was anything but pleasant.
On receiving a call to Edderachilles on 7 Mar 1743, from the Presbytery of Tongue, he at once accepted and was inducted there on 21 Jun. He found the work there much more congenial. His stipend was 800 marks Scots. He served there for 19 years until his death in 1755.
