Robert went to Hampshire County, Virginia (now West Virginia) in 1791.
Error alert: According to dates given in the reference, Robert's oldest child was born in 1792 which means he would have had to have been born in about 1775 or earlier, but he supposedly died in 1893 so that would make him at least 118 years old at his death. I suppose that's possible, but there might be an error in the dates.

«i»1) Robert Monro of Flanders, New Jersey was referred to in family legend as "That Old Tory" and "Colonel".
2) He is reputed to have fought in the "French and Indian Wars" for the British.
3) His son James came over with the family. If my great grandmother's information is correct that would have been in 1781 while the Revolutionary War was still active. Robert possibly being called back into service.
4) The New York Munroes have connections to John and Doctor Robert who went to and settled in "Upper Canada" in the Simcoe area as Loyalists.
5) Robert, Sr. also is reputed to have fled to Canada for awhile but returned to settle in Flanders, New Jersey.
6) The supposed discrepancy concerning his date of death is explained by his tombstone which clearly indicates he died 1 July, 1804 and not 28 June, 1803. Apparently Robert suffered a stroke and the doctor informed the family that there was no hope of recovery; therefore an inventory of his goods, which normally occurs after death, was made in June of 1803 leading to the mistaken assumption that this was the date of his death. «/i»
