56154 Henry was educated at Eton and Christchurch, Oxford. In 1864, he succeeded to the disentailed portions of the Novar estates, on the death of his uncle, Hugh Andrew Johnstone Munro of Novar. He also inherited from his uncle, his famous collection of art which sold at fabulous prices.

In 1874, he assumed the name of Munro in addition to his own and that of Johnstone, which he had previously assumed on his succession to the estates of his uncle, General Johnstone of Corehead and Auchen Castle.

He served as a Member of Parialment for Canterbury for several years, having been elected twice from that city. In 1878, he resigned his seat and became the manager of the Great Mammoth Gold Mine in Utah. He worked with much force and energy at this position, but was ultimately obliged to give it up for want of the necessary funds to carry it on.

He had a very strong sympathy with the Turks in their war with Russia and made large donations to the Porte for the purchase of arms and ammunition, but the splendid resistance of the Turks aat Plevna and elsewhere proved of no avail. Henry thought he would never be repaid, but when Mr. Bourke, the Under Secretary for Foreign Affairs, consented to go to Constantinople to plead the case of the British bondholders, he took advantage of that opportunity to urge the special nature of Mr. Johnstone's claim, and the Porte directed that it should be discharged in full, a total of about 200,000 pounds plus 30,000 pounds in interest.

In 1882, Henry sold his portion of the Novar estates to Mr. Ronald Crawford Munro Ferguson for 112,000 pounds.

56166 Henry was only seven when his father fell through the ice of a river and drowned. At the age of nine, Henry was farmed out to earn his keep and there learned the carpenter and cabinet making trade. In adulthood, he carried on this business in Danbury and Redding, Connecticut.

On 13 Jun 1837, he married Eliza, the only daughter of Hudson and Betty (or Betsey) (Little) Sanford.

In 1855, Henry and his family moved to Chicago, Illinois where he engaged in the undertaking business for one year. At that time, he was one of only four undertakers in the city of Chicago.

They lived in Woodstock, Illinois from 1856 until after the outbreak of the Civil War, at which time they moved to Louisville, Kentucky. There Henry bought an interest in the Goodwillie Box Co., which was making bread boxes for the government. The box factory burned down, but the family remained in Louisville to be near their son, William Henry, who had joined the Union Army.

Henry's wife, Eliza, showed her patriotism in that rebel city by hanging the American flag in front of their residence every day until her son returned. Eliza and her daughter, Mary, daily visited hospitals in Louisville ministering to the wants and needs of the sick and wounded soldiers and looking for boys from Woodstock. They took many into their home where they nursed them until they recovered.

While living in Louisville, Henry found time to establish a "Mission Sabbath School" in a neglected part of the city. From this small mission, which was started in a hall, grew a prosperous Methodist Church. As the mission grew, they expanded. Henry helped build a new church where he preached until he returned to Woodstock, Illinois in 1876. Years later, Henry was called back to Louisville to dedicate a lovely new church that had grown from the little Mission School he founded.

Henry started out as a Methodist, but in later years preached in Congregational Churches. In 1877, he was engaged in the service of the American Bible Society in McHenry, Illinois and in 1878, he became pastor of the Congregational Church in Bartlett, Illinois. He remained there until 1886 when he moved to Malta, Illinois to assume the pastorate of the Congregational Church there. After three years, his health failing, he was obliged to give up the pastorate and moved to West Dundee, Illinois for his retirement because "there were no saloons there".

While in retirement he helped build the parsonage of the Congregational Church of Algonquin, Illinois where his granddaughter's husband, William Hench, was pastor.

Henry died 22 Oct 1895 after spending his life in the service of others and always giving ten percent of his earnings to charity.

56196 Her first husband, Joseph, was lost at sea.

Her second husband was Rev. Palmer Brown. He may have been born in Kingston, Rhode Island instead of Woonsocket. He was ordained a Methodist Minister, but later came under the influence of Bishop Griswold and became an Episcopal Minister in charge of several parishes before his death. Rev. Brown's death was caused by exposure from visiting the sick during a cold stormy night.

One reference has Palmer being married to a Mary Armstrong and lists the same children as we have listed for Palmer and Phebe.

Phebe and Palmer moved to Woonsocket, Rhode Island in 1834. She was a member of St. James Episcopal Church, Woonsocket 1844-1845.

She died at the age of 79. The cause of death was "Congestion of Brain".
