37157	Error alert: According to the dates given in the reference, Joseph was born when his father was 10 years old and 20 years before his father was married. Joseph probably does not belong in this family. The reference (Mackenzie) is hard to follow in this area. Joseph was adopted and had his name changed to Jackson.

37165	Error alert: According to the dates provided in references, John's mother was 56 years old when he was born. That's probably possible, but it invites skepticism. One reference says both John and Jennie were born in or near Dundee, Scotland. They both emmigrated to Galveston, Texas in 1867. They happened to be on the same ship and shortly after their arrival, they were married at the Liberty Hill Methodist Church. Jennie was the daughter of William Ross. John engaged in the mercantile business, handling hardware and later expanding to general merchandise. John and Jennie were quite religious assembling their large family for morning and evening prayers and some times Bible verses from each member of the family.

37169	Error alert: According to the Reid reference, Nathaniel was born on 27 Jun 1873 and his father was born in 1875. That's a prett good trick - being born before your father. Anyway, one or both of these dates must be in error. I'm estimating that Nathaniel was really born in about 1908. Nathaniel and Annie had no children. Ref: Clan Munro files - Reid, Vera Compiled and edited by Allen Alger, Genealogist, Clan Munro Association, USA	Munroe, Nathaniel (I21809)
37170	Error alert: According to the Wood reference, Lucinda was born in 1817, which is two years before the birth of her father. I'm estimating that the actual birth date should be about 1848. This also puts the dates more in line with the birth date of Lucinda's daughter, Jenny who was born in 1878.	Munroe, Lucinda (I21301)
37171	Error alert: All references say this George Monroe was the grandson of Col. William Gent Monroe, Jr. but there is disagreement on who George's parents were. Some references say his parents were George Monroe (b. about 1726) and Peggy. Different references have slightly different children for this family. All children mentioned in the references are listed here, but some may not belong to this family. Others may be duplicates. The Malloy reference says this George was the son of William Monroe and Margaret Bowcock. Juda and William went west soon after they were married. The rest of the family never heard from them again and it was assumed that they were killed by the Indians. His will was dated 6 june 1834 and proved 23 Sep 1839. occupation: farmer Ref: Clan Munro files -Cones, Mona Federer, Sally Darnall Munro, R. W.

37172	Error alert: Although James is a male name, the reference says this James is a daughter who married Alexander Paterson. ******** The following is a transcription of RW Munro's genealogy notes: «i»Alexander Munro of Kiltearn Eldest son of Rev.

37173	Error alert: Angus was age 69 on the 1851 Scotland census but is also listed as age 60 on the 1861 census. He was 68 on the 1871 census. The first figure, age 69, is probably a mistake. Angus was a fisherman. In 1851 he and his family lived in the village of Badnamurichin. In 1861 the family was living in the district of Stoer, in the city or county of Sutherland, village of Issin. In 1871 he was a "tennant". In 1871 the family was living in the village of Strathan. Compiled and edited by Allen Alger, Genealogist, Clan Munro Association, USA	Munro, Angus (I60914)
37174	Error alert: Anne Munro is said to be the daughter of John Munro, fourth Laird of Teanourd, and Catharine Bayne, his wife. Alexander Mackenzie lists no Laird of Teanourd named John in his "History of the Munros", and none of the listed Lairds was married to a Catharine Bayne. It is thought that the information given about Anne's ancestry is incorrect. Anne is reported to have been born about 1718 and her first child in 1730 when she was about 12 years old - also probably in error. After the death of her husband, Anne lived at Drummond, about two miles from Fowlis. She was an amiable woman, highly educated, and beloved by all who knew her. A slight accident, which occurred a few years after her husband's death, unexpectedly proved fatal, and she died after a short illness, at the early age of thirty years, leaving two children, Henry, born in 1730, and Alexander, a year or two later.

37175	Error alert: Apparently Dwight had a cousin who was also named Dwight D. Monroe. The two Dwights seem to be confused at times with different references saying that each was married to Millie Beach. I don't know which Dwight was actually married to her.

37180	Error alert: Based on the dates given in references, it doesn't appear that George belongs in this family. George died of "bleeding at the lungs."

37181	Error alert: Because of the dates given in references, it is impossible to estimate a meaningful birth year for William. According to reports, William's mother was born in 1812 and William was married 16 years later in 1828. There are definitely errors in this family.

37186	Error alert: Elizabeth's birth and marriage dates suggest that she was married at the age of 7. There is probably an error here.

Compiled and edited by Allen Alger, Genealogist, Clan Munro Association, USA	Munroe, Elizabeth (I28810)
37187	Error alert: Given the dates recorded in various references, it is difficult to make an estimate of Margaret's birth year that makes any sense. Her parents were married in 1619 so presumablly Margaret was born after that. Her son, Hector was killed in battle in 1645. Presumably Hector had to have been at least in his late teens so he would have had to have been born around 1628 or so. There is no way Margaret could have been born after 1619 and had a son around 1628. If the dates in the references are correct, the only plausible explanation is that Margaret was born before her parents were married. Ref: "The Munro Tree (1734)" by R. W. Munro - U, M/56, U/2 Collonel Sir Hector Munro succeeded his brother Robert A D 1633 and married Mary daughter to Hugh McKy of Strathnaver by whom he had Hector Jean Margaret and Catherine he dyed at Hamburgh. Mr Hector Munro Minister of [? Loth] by Margaret daughter to Sir Hector Munro of Fowlis had Lieut. Hector killed at Philipsburgh and Mr John Minister of Bute father to Mr James Minister of Dundee. Margaret Munro his 2d daughter married Mr Hector Munro Minister of Loath in Sutherland by whom she had Lieutenant Hector Munro and Mr John Minister of Bute. Ref: "History of the Munros" by A.

37189	Error alert: Guilford believes this genealogy is odd and questions whether Benjamin survived. Benjamin and his brother, Freedom, were signers on a petition to Congress by inhabitants of the Territory of Michigan, U.S., for roads to be surveyed and established. Ref: "Lexington, Mass. Munroes", 2nd ed. by R. S. Munroe - 13-87-11/ Compiled and edited by Allen Alger, Genealogist, Clan Munro Association, USA	Monroe, Benjamin (I7727)
37190	Error alert: Guilford says George was the son of Robert De Munro "supposed to have married a daughter of the Earl of Sutherland." She also says that George was the grandson of Domnall Abunro, or Donald Munro, the founder ot the ancient Scottish Clan Munro. ******** «i»George de Munro, evidently divided into several individuals in the later tradition, killed at the Battle of halidon Hill, 20 July 1333. «/i» ("The Monroe Book" - by Dr. Joan Guilford) ******** George was a steadfast supporter of the Bruce dynasty, and a firm upholder of the true interests of his native country, in opposition to the Balliol faction and their followers. When King Edward III of England invaded Scotland in 1333, George Munro raised his clan and marched to Northumberland where he joined the Scottish army under the Regent Douglas. At the battle of Halidon Hill on 20 Jul 1333, the Munros formed part of the fourth division, or reserve, commanded by Hugh, Earl of Ross, who, while leading an attack on the wing of the English army commanded by Edward Balliol, was driven back and slain. This repulse which proved so disastrous terminated in total defeat of the Scots, chiefly owing to the difficulties of the ground and their rash advance against the English troops. The Scottish army lost at the lowest computation fourteen thousand men, among whom, besides the Earl of Ross, were the Earls of Sutherlnd, Lennox, Atholl, and Carrick, and many other Scottish nobles. The Regent was mortally wounded and taken prisoner. The Chief of the Munros was killed, fighting bravely at the head of his clan, many of whom fell on that fatal field, and the survivors, a sadly attenuated band, were led home by the Chief's brother, John, who, upon his return, took charge of his houng nephew's affairs and continued to do so during Robert's minority. Ref. (1) says that Munro of Foulis is not named in surviving lists of the Scottish muster or casualties in the battle of Halidon Hill. The Rohe reference says George was the son of Robert Munro VI of Foulis. Error alert: The Paula Monroe reference incorrectly confuses the Battle of Pinkie with the Battle of Halidon Hill.
