58726	James first came to Monroe County, Michigan from New York in 1851. He returned to New York where he worked on his father's farm. In 1855 he returned again to Michigan and settled in Howell. He was a carpenter and building contractor. ******** «i»Among the quiet and unostentatious, yet thoroughly worthy and efficient members of the business circles of Howell, Livingston County, we are gratified to name one who bears an honorable name, and who, although not claiming descent from the Presidential chair, traces his lineage to a hero in both the War of 1812 and the War of the Revolution. This citizen was born April 27, 1827, in the township of Richmond, Ontario County, N.Y., and is a son of Lemuel and Martha (Rawling) Monroe, natives of the Eastern States. Lemuel Monroe was a boot and shoemaker, who had served his country nobly in both the Revolutionary War and the conflict of 1812. In his later days he came to Michigan and lived with a son Francis, until called hence by death after he had reached the very venerable age of ninety years. He had been the husband of three wives, and by them had eighteen children, and our subject is the youngest of this patriarchal flock. The mother of James Monroe died in New York in 1857, and he was reared upon a farm until he reached the age of twenty-four years, but did not live at home after he was eight years old. He made his home with a farmer for nine years, and then at the age of seventeen received the clothes which were commonly given to a bound boy when he left service, and came to Monroe County, Mich. Here he passed four years and then returned to New York, where he worked upon a farm for some four years longer. He then learned the trade of a carpenter, and did not return to Michigan until 1855. Settling in Howell, the young man now devoted himself to his trade, and took up the broader business of contracting and building. He purchased on Clinton Street, where he now lives, two lots and a house and was married in 1857 to Nancy Garmer, daughter of Amos and Sarah (Eaton) Garmer. Mr. Garmer was a native of Germany, and his wife was a Vermonter, while his daughter was born at Dansville, Livingston County, N.Y. He was a merchant tailor, and carried on a large business at Dansville. They had one other daughter, Maria, who is now Mrs. Leach, of Ionia, this State. The maternal grandfather of Mrs. Monroe was a Eliphalet Eaton, a native of Vermont, who was engaged in the hotel business at Mt. Morris, N.Y., and to him and his wife Betsey (Goodrich) Eaton, were given a family of twelve children. Mr. and Mrs. Monroe gave to each of their six children an excellent and liberal education, and so brought them up that they have become men and women of intelligence, usefulness and a pronounced Christian character, and they all belong to the Methodist or Baptist Church. The oldest, Libby B., is Mrs. Charles Warren, of Gladwin County, this State, and has two children, Claud and Veroy. Dwight D. has been united in marriage with Miss Millie Beach, and they have a little child, Charles B.; he is a member of the mercantile firm of Monroe Bros., doing business in Howell; George L. is his partner, and they are carrying a fine and well selected stock of dry-goods and groceries, boots and shoes; Ada M. married Arthur Garland, a merchant tailor of Howell, for whom Arthur A., the next brother, acts as clerk; Cora M. is a teacher in the Union schools of Howell, and has a position in the Fourth Ward school. The political views of the father of this prominent and highly respected family, bring him into sympathy and action with the Republican party, and he is an intelligent observer of the great events which must concern every American, and is deeply interested in the prosperity of our Country. «/i» (http://www.memoriallibrary.com/MI/LivIngPB/bios775-785.htm#778 as quoted in Susan Spencer's email of 16 Sep 2009) ******** Ref: "Lexington, Mass.

58741	James inherited the farm, Meikle Daan, as his portion. He married Ann, the daughter of James Graham, Edderton. His wife is said to have been a beautiful woman, but she was in comparatively humble circumstances. The marriage so highly incensed James' two elder brothers that they resolved upon separating them. She was forcibly carried away during the night and shipped to "the then penal settlement of New York", where she remained for many years, unknown to her husband at Daan. In Aug 1737, James' brother, Gustavus made the curious remark: "I hope Katharine Graham is away, as you can oblige me let her not see land till she arrives at Georgia." The treatment which Ann received natually displeased her relations, and they ultimately applied to the head of their family, Graham of Drynie, in the Black Isle, to call the Munros to account for their conduct toward their relative. The charges against the Munros were investigated. A notice circulated about the missing woman was seen by her employer. Her husband was informed and "he thereupon petitioned Parliament to have his wife returned to him, with the result, it is said, that a man-of-war was sent to bring her home. The ship arrived in the Cormarty Firth where the heartlessly exiled Mrs. Munro was safely landed at Ballintraid and joyfully welcomed by her devoted husband, after which they lived happily together for many years. James continued to live at the farm of Daan in the parish of Edderton during the lifetime of his two elder brothers. References: (1) "The Munro Tree (1734)" by R. W.
