62258	One reference says Byrd was a medical doctor, but in 1850 he was a merchant with $10,000 in property living with his family in Charleston, Coles County, Illinois. Also living with him was Jacob Lindar (age 68), who was probably his father-in-law. Ref: Clan Munro files - Guilford, Dr. Joan S.

62259	One reference says Catherine was born in 1821 in Cayuga County, New York. This is probably incorrect. A Catherine Monroe bought 40 acres of land on 9 Dec 1836 in Vanderburgh County from the US Land Office in Vincennes, Indiana. It is difficult to explain why the US Government would sell land to a 12 year old girl. This was almost two years after her father's death. Her second husband, N. B. Stroud sold the land in 1848. She married George Robert (or Ruber) in 1839. If the birth date is correct, she would have been 15 years old, a very young bride even for those times. It may have been that her orphan status hastened the marriage process. In 1850, she was 26 years old and living with her family in Vanderberg County, Indiana. The N. B. Stroud family was not found on the 1860 census indexes for Indiana, Kentucky, Illinois, or Missouri. Possibly the family migrated beyond these immediate states.

62261	One reference says DeWitt was born in Vanderburgh County, Indiana, and that he died in Oakland City, Indiana. DeWitt's wife was Sarah Elizabeth Elwyn. Sarah's mother died when Sarah was five so she was taken into the home of James T. Elwyn, her half brother. Sarah kept house for James after his wife died. James and Sarah took DeWitt in as a boarder when he was a student at Oakland City College. Sarah and DeWitt later were married. DeWitt moved from Gondola to Snakey Point, and then to Oakland City, Indiana. Ref: "Small Worlds" by Kendyl K. Monroe - p. 1 Clan Munro files - Monroe, Jerold Jacob Monroe, Kendyl K.

62262	One reference says Dugald (or Dougal) was born in North Carolina. The Matthew Monroe reference says he was born in Scotland in 1787, and went to America between 1820 and 1825 with his parents, brother and sisters. His family all settled in North Carolina, except Dugald. He settled in Forsyth County, Georgia, where he made his living making felt hats. Since Matthew Monroe says he died in 1885 at the age of 88, the birth year of 1797 is used. Other references cite this as the year of his birth. Dugald's wife, Nancy, died before 1880.

Finally she went to live with her aunt Emma, who was the second wife of Richard Whalian. There she met his son, Emmett. They both taught school and had much in common. They fell in love and married. Rosa went to normal school in Howell for 6-10 weeks and began boarding out while teaching school for various periods of time. In between teaching, she lived with her Uncle Richard and Aunt Emma, where she helped with the family chores including sewing. She developed a life-long love for sewing. She made an elaborate, beautiful high school graduation dress for her daughter, Olive.

Ref: Clan Munro files - Putnam, Marcelyn S. - copy of a newspaper clipping from unknown newspaper of unknown date. Traverse Pioneer, 102 Years Old, Dead Northport, Oct. 2--John Monroe, Sr. 102, oldest pioneer of the Grand Traverse region, is dead at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Elizabeth Barnes. With the death of this pioneer, who bore a striking resemblance to the martyred president William McKinley, comes the first break in a four-generation household. The daughter, her son Delbert, 49, and the latter's son Virgil, 21, all live in the same dwelling. Mr. Monroe was born at Inverness, Scotland, Nov. 20, 1820. He took out naturalization papers 57 years ago and filed on a homestead at East Jordan. Later he followed gold mining in Australia and the Klondike and built the first dam over the Pine river at East Jordan. A man of Herculean strength and size he often carried a 500 pound load without effort. Nine of fourteen children survive: John Monroe, Jr., East Jordan; Mrs. Anna Miles, Ellsworth; Alex Monroe, Detroit; Mrs. Hattie Matthews, Toronto, Can.; Mrs. Mary McIntosh, Tacoma, Wash.; Joseph Monroe, Mayger, Ore.; Henry Monroe, Astoria, Ore.; Augustine Monroe, Northport, and Mrs. Elizabeth Monroe, Northport.

Putnam dated 25 Oct 1996 When we talked at the Clan Munro Gathering in Tallahassee earlier this month, you kindly offered to send me a print-out of references regarding my great-grandfather, John Munro, and his antecedents. His number in your book is 10,200. I was puzzled that his entry indicated he was born in Trois Rivieres, Canada (Ontario?), because my information from family sources indicated he was born in Inverness, Scotland. I am enclosing a copy of a newspaper clipping from my mother's scrapbook) which gave his birthplace as Inverness. [The clipping was probably from a newspaper printed in Traverse City, Michigan.] Another clipping enclosed regards the death of Augustus Munro, John's son, and my mother's father [probably from a Leelanau County publication]. I realize that newspapers contain errors and inaccuracies. Witness the misspelling of John "Monroe" throughout the article, and changing Augustus Munro to "August" (he was called "Gus" informally). The article about John Munro stated incorrectly that he left a son, "Augustine." However, my family's oral tradition related that John was from Inverness. That included stories told by my mother as well as her several sisters and brothers. I had heard that John's wife was named Marceline (or Marcelline) and that he met and married her in Paris. However, I had not heard that hes father and grandfather were both named Daniel. Nor had I ever heard the names of their wives: Pelagie Zaste and Mary Anne LaBrie. They sound like refugees from a romantic novel, don't they? They certainly could be French-Canadian. Definitely not Scots. Mysterious! Also enclosed are photos of the tombstones of John and Augustus in the cemetery at Northport, Michigan. They may serve to verify dates and spelling of names.	Munro, John (I10200)
62300	One reference says that Nancy Mary (or Mary Nancy) and Julius were married in Pine River, Michigan, and that Nancy was born in East Jordan, Michigan.
