36213	Donald and his five brothers were known as "Sliochd Alasdair mhic Huistain." He was awarded an M.A. degree, but it is not known from what university. He entered the church and is first heard of professionally as Archdeacon of the Isles, to which office he was nominated in 1549. In about 1549, Dean Munro made his famous tour of the Isles and wrote his well-known "Description of the Western Isles of Scotland, with genealogies of the Chief Clans of the Isles." His manuscript was subsequently published in Edinburgh in 1744, with reprints in 1805, 1818, and 1884. He is mentioned in a Register of Ministers, published by the Maitland Club, as "Mr Donald Munro, Commissioner to plant Kirks in Ross, and to assist the Bishop of Caithness in similar planting to begin at Lammas, 1563." He remained in this office of Commissioner to plant kirks for several years, at least until 1574. On 27 Dec 1563, the General Assembly received a complaint that Donald was "not so apt to teach as his charge required." At that time several ministers were "ordained to take a trial of his gift, and to report to the Assembly." On 28 Jun 1565, he complained that the Ross-shire ministers were not in residence at their kirks. In Jul 1570, he was given an assistant because he was "not prompt" in the Gaelic language. In 1574 he was serving as the minister of Limlair, of Alness, and of Kiltearn, "at a stipend equal to 5 pounds 11 shillings and the church lands." Tradition records that the Dean lived at Castle Craig, facing Kiltearn, on the south side of Cromerty Firth, which he crossed in a boat on Sundays to preach alternately at his three churches of Kiltearn, Limlair and Alness. It has been said that Donald may have first been a priest of the Catholic Church, but became a Protestant in middle age because of the influence of his relative and Chief, Robert Munro, fifteenth Baron of Foulis, but this is not consistent with the ecclesiastical offices which he held early in life. He was Archdean of the Isles, Superintendent of Ross and Minister of Kiltearn. Buchannan called him "Homo pius et Doctus." He died unmarried. ******** The following is a transcription of RW Munro's genealogy notes: [Alexander Munro] «i»Fourth son of Hugh Munro of Coul (fl 1492), & first by second wife Jane Cattanach; founder of Munros of Kiltearn, or 'Sliochd Alastair Mhic Uistean'; m.

36237	Donald is a "cousin" of Capt. John Munro UEL [6254], and his brother-in-law as he married John's sister. His will is dated 1814, and it appears he died soon after. Neither his wife or daughter (listed on his ship passage to New Carlisle in 1784) are named in his will so it is assumed they preceeded him in death.
