56483	In 1677 Donald sat on an assise at Inverary, Scotland. This Donald is the subject of a tale involving the young 10th Earl's escape during the Atholl raids of 1685. Apparently the young laird had gone into hiding after his father's capture at Inchinnan and had chosen a cave near the white rock of Stuckagoy. Donald and his sons had kept the Earl supplied with food until one day the Atholmen, armed to the teeth and with information of Argyll's whereabouts, approached Stuckagoy. Monro successfully got the Earl away over the hill passes thereby eluding his would-be captors. For this the family earned the undying gratitude of the Campbells and the undisputed right to Stuckagoy.

56488	In 1752, in Albemarle County, Virginia, he was the administrator of the will of his father-in-law, Arthur Osborn. He was from Rutherford County, North Carolina and owned land in North Carolina and Kentucky. He lived in Mercer, Franklin and Shelby Counties, Kentucky. He may have been a soldier in the Revolutionary War and possibly fought at the Battle of Kings Mountain in North Carolina. George's will dated 24 Aug 1784 (codicil dated 24 Mar 1789) names his wife, Ann Osborn; children Margaret, Isabelle Barnett, Jannett Jones, Arter Monroe, Ann Wilson, William Phillip, Osborn, Mary, and John Monroe. The codicil names his granddaughter, Ann, William's daughter. It was proved in Jul 1789 and probated in Rutherford County, North Carolina and witnessed by Thomas Stockton, John Price, David Mowlin and David Stockton. Ann's estate was divided among 7 legatees, which means she may have been George's second wife. His first wife may have been named Sanders. The Price and Ellis references say that George is the same person as George [2815]. The Garrigues reference says that George was the son of Capt. Andrew Munroe [201] and a wife to whom he was married before he married Christian Tyler. The Beggs reference says George is the same person as George [3457]. There is obviously a lot of confusion in this area and the correct version is not known to me. Ref: Clan Munro files - Rice, Dorothy Robbins, Irvin Monroe, Kenneth R.

He lived in Truro Parish, Virginia and was one of the early settlers of Oakton, Virginia and was a neighbor of General John C. Hunter. He had other children who were minors when his will was recorded on 28 Jul 1785. He left everything to his widow except his house and land which were bequeathed to his son, William. In 1786 there is record of payment to one Andrew Monroe from the estate of John Monroe, Gent. The Watson Monroe reference says John's father was "Andrew (1708 ?- ?)". John's will was dated 28 Jul 1785.

56499	In 1773, John's parents left Scotland to go to America. Their ship was disabled soon after embarking so they had to return to Ireland where they spent the winter of 1773/1774. John was born during this wait. His father remained loyal the the Crown of England when the American Revolution broke out. The family was forced to flee to Canada where, after the war, they settled in Charlottenburg, Glengarry County, Ontario. They first lived on lot 22, first consession. Later, John's father moved to another farm and John remained on the original plot. John's wife was Nancy "Ann" Ross.

56500	In 1782 Hugh Munro Sr. - in letters petitioning for land in Edwardsburg Twp, writes that he is 65 years old, and was expecting to visit his son in New York, whom he earlier describes as an "orphan left homeless in New York to the mercy of a stranger.." (Hugh Jr. would be about 17 years old at this time.) "A HISTORY OF CARDINAL" written and published by the Cardinal town Council in 1967 documents the following: (Pages 3-10 plus others) Because of a lack of records, Captain Munro, and his son, Col. Hugh Munro, have assumed one identity. The "homeless orphan" referred to previously is assumed to he the Hugh Munro buried in the Presbyterian Cemetery in Cardinal, and is the Colonel who "won his spurs" as a captain in the War of 1812. He belonged to the First Regiment of the Grenville Militia, was commissioned Major on the 21st of January, 1822. He was then raised to Leutenant-Colonel on the 5th of June, 1826, and reached the rank of Colonel on the 7th of August, 1830, when he assumed command of the Regiment (Ref (1) says 1st Battalion Grenville Militia), and served in this capacity until succeeded by Lt-Colonel Philip Dulmage on July 26, 1841. According to the Ontario Archives, Hugh Munro Jr. had been made officer commanding the flank of the 1st Grenville Militia in the year 1800 at the age of 35. When the War of 1812 broke out, men of the village and the area rallied around him to defend their homes against invasion by the Americans. Numerous skirmishes took place along the river with men of the Grenville Militia holding their own. Leavitt's History of Leeds and Grenville Counties describes some of the action on the morning of September 16, 1812. Five hundred Americans attcked a brigade of batteaux a short distance from Point Iriquois. Two companies of the Grenville Militia under Captain Hugh Munro and Captain Dulmage arrived to support the brigade, bringing with them a nine pounder, taken from the French at Chimney Island some fifty years before in 1760. The one gun battery compelled the Americans to evacuate the island and depart to the south shore of the river. Hugh was the Commanding Colonel of the 1st Battalion Grenville Militia during the Lyon Mackenzie rebellion of 1838-1839. The following exerpts are from a history of Cardinal written by an unknown author and published in the February 10 and 24 issues of the PRESCOTT JOURNAL in 1898 (Courtesy of Grenville Historical Society) "I remember that the place where Cardinal now stands was origionally owned by two men. The west half was owned by one Mr. Doyle, the other half was owned by Colonel Hugh Munro, a stalwart man who distinguished himself in the War of 1812. The reader will bear in mind that at this time there was only one house in this place and of course there were no roads, no bridges, no canal, no steamboats plying the river, and no clearings of any account. It stood in its primeval grandeur heavily wooded with beach, maple and other timber and roamed over by deer which came to slack their thirst when pursued by the Redmen of the forrest. Colonel Munro owned 200 acres of land on a portion of which Cardinal now stands. It was 200 acres wide extending back to the second concession. With this he also owned a large stone house, later known as the "Benson House" that was even later converted to a school. A long twisting road ran from here to the Mills on Munro Point as the area along there was covered with many large boulders, ledges and encumbrances. Colonel Munro concluded there was good water power on the point and decided to harness it for the running of a few mills. (Here the author may be confusing the actions actually undertaken by Hugh Munro Sr. to establish the first Saw and Gist Mills.) He built a small raceway along the edge of the river to get a more powerful water head. He built his mill, cosisting of grist, clothing and carding mills, all of which stood in a frame building and on the East half of where Cardinal now stands. Colonel Munro, when he built the carding mill must have had faith in the future of the country, for there were very few sheep in the neighborhood at the time. He foresaw that they would come and prepared a machine for carding their wool into rolls. The history which we are attempting to give would be very incomplete without further reference to Colonel Hugh Munro. I have a distinct recollection of seeing him a long time after he had passed through the War of 1812. Although I was a very little boy at the time, his stately appearance made on my mind an impression which can never be effaced. He rode on horseback and wore his regimentals which consisted of a splendid sword which hung by his side with a carbine on the pommel to the front. His suit and three cornered cocked hat was made of the richest material. He was on his way to Johnstown for a general drill of the soldiers which always took place on the 4th day of June of each year. Although the Colonel was faithful in training the soldiers, many of the soldiers themselves, I regret to say, were only trained to drink whiskey which training often put the men in fine trim for fighting and it was not uncommon for the drill to end up with a general field fight, the instruments being less deadly than the sword or carbine. Stories of the amount of silver at Colonel Munro's made a lasting impression on my youthful mind. I heard it stated, and often, by those who saw it, and I firmly believe it was true, that kegs or half barrels of silver dollars and half-dollars were rolled off at his door. This was told to me by parties who saw the hoops knocked off and the kegs raised, and who often expressed their astonishment at such a quantity of silver. Notwithstanding this the Colonel became a poor man. He left his stately home residence and lands and took up residence on the farm now owned by either Mr. Edson Adams or Mr. McKnight. There, I believe, he remained until he died and his remains lie in the old Presbyterian church yard. At his death the following notice of him appeared in one of the Canadian newspapers: "At his residence in Edwardsburgh, on the 4th inst., Colonel Hugh Munro, aged 90. The deceased gentleman was one of the ancient family of the Munros of Fowlis, grandson of the Laird of Fowlis [this is, of course, incorrect] and one of the oldest and most respected inhabitants of the County of Grenville. He had been an extensive timber merchant, an honest, upright business man, and an elder in the Scottish Presbyterian Church, and Colonel-Commanding the First Battalion Grenville Militia. He served in the last war, and commanded a flank company of Militia at the attack and capture of Ogdenburgh in 1812-13, and with his regiment, the First Grenville, was in active service at Prescott during the troubles of 1838-39. He left a large circle of friends and relatives, and his memory will be long cherished by the inhabitants of Edwardsburgh. References: (1) "History of the Munros of Fowlis" by A.
