83601	Thomas was a lawyer and served as Mayor of Lexington, Kentucky. He was Secretary of State under Magoffin in 1859. He was still serving in that office when he entered the Confederate service as a major in the 4th Kentucky Infantry. When Kentucky was admitted to the Confederacy on 10 Dec 1861, Thomas was elected as one of the deputies to the Provisional Congress and was the first Kentucky representative to take his seat at Richmond (16 Dec.).

83607	Thomas was born on 27 May 1761 (ref. 1) or 26 May 1761 (ref. 2). In his infancy, a severe attack of the measles caused partial deafness. This problem increased as he aged. He passed from the Grammar School to the Glasgow University when he was about thirteen, remaining at the University for nearly three years. He distinguished himself in mathematics and chemistry. He enjoyed reading history and literature, a taste which he kept up throughout his life. As a boy, he wanted to read "Don Quixote" in the original, so he taught himself Spanish from a dictionary and a grammar to do so. This knowledge soon proved useful. After a Spanish vessel was captured by a privateer belonging to a mercantile house in Glasgow, he translated some papers found on the vessel. The payment he received for this was his first earnings, and he promptly gave it to his mother. Thomas was tall and robust. He excelled in all athletic sports, and was possessed of high courage, extraordinary agility, great presence of mind and powers of self-denial. He spent most of his vacations at a country house called Northwoodside, which was two or three miles from Glasgow. This spot was beautifully situated on the banks of the Kelvin, and he often spent days there fishing in the stream, or swimming in Jackson's dam. In 1777, his father obtained for him a clerkship in the counting-house of Messrs. Somerville & Gordon, West-Indian merchants in Glasgow. Shortly afterwards, the magistrates, made him a tender of a lieutenancy in the corps which they were raising. Because his father was opposed, he reluctantly declined the offer. His disappointment was increased when several of his old companions departed for military service. One of them was the future Sir John Moore who died at Corunna. The following year, 1778, the new United States Congress passed the Act of Confiscation and stopped payments to the house where his father was a partner. This rapidly reduced the Munro family to comparative poverty. Because of these circumstances, his father was now glad to accept for his son a midshipman's berth in the mercantile marine of the East India Company, but just before he sailed he was able to get it changed for a cadetship. Not being able to afford to pay for his passage, Thomas obtained permission from the captain of the "Walpole" to work his way out to Madras as an ordinary seaman. He left home on 20 Feb 1779 and arrived in Madras on 15 Jan 1780. From 1780 to 1792, Thomas was on active duty with the military in the wars against Haidar Ali and Tipu (or Tippoo) Sultan. He fought in a great many battles during this time rising to the rank of Captain. From 1792 to 1807 he was employed in the civil administration of India. During that time he served in the Baramahal (1792-1799), which had been ceded by Tipu; in Kanara (1799-1800); and from 1800 to 1807, served as a Major in the districts still known as the Ceded Districts, acquired by treaty with the Nizam in 1800. On 24 Apr 1804, he was promoted to Lieutenant-Colonel. He was one of the few Europeans of those times to become totally fluent in Hindustani and other Indian dialects. He received a silver medal from the East India Company for his services in Seringapatam in 1799. Later, he had a representation of this medal placed on his arms and crest. On 23 Oct 1807, Thomas sailed for England, having then been in India without interruption for nearly 28 years. After an interval of six years in Britain, Thomas was sent back to India in 1814 by the Court of Directors as "Principal Commissioner for the revision of the internal administration of the Madras territories". He attained the rank of Colonel on 15 Jun 1815. During 1817-1818, he was in command of a division of the army in the last Maratha War being promoted to Brigadier-General in Dec 1817. General Munro enjoyed great success in the last Maratha War in which his command captured all the Peishwah's territories between Toombudda and Kistna, and from Kistna northward to Akloos, on the Neemah, and eastward to the Nizam's frontier. On 8 Aug 1818, he received the surrender of Paurghur, the last fort held for the Peishwah. In January 1819, Thomas, and his wife sailed from Madras for England. Their first child was born enroute near the Azores. The fame of General Thomas Munro preceded him to England. The House of Commons gave General Munro a vote of thanks after the termination of the Maratha War. In the thanks, Mr. Canning said, "Europe never produced a more accomplished statesman, nor India, so fertile in heros, a more skillful soldier...He went into the field with not more than five or six hundred men, of whom a very small portion were Europeans, and marched into the Maratha territories, to take possession of the country which had been ceded to us by the treaty of Poona. The population which he subjugated by arms, he managed with such address, equity, and wisdom, that he established an empire over their hearts and feelings. Nine forts were surrendered to him, or taken by assault, on his way; and at the end of a silent and scarcely observed progress, he emerged from a territory heretofore hostile to the British interest, with an accession instead of a diminution of force, leaving everything secure and tranquil behind him. This result speaks more than could be told by any minute and extended commentary." Not many months after returning to England, Thomas was nominated to the Governorship of Madras, India. Before he left India he had been gazetted Companion of the Bath (Oct 1818), was promoted to the rank of Major-General in Aug 1819, and on his acceptance of the Governorship of Madras he was created a K.C.B. Before departing for his post as Governor, Sir Thomas was entertained at a banquet by the Court of Directors at which his old friend the Duke of Wellington was present as well as Lord Eldon and the rest of His Majesty's Ministers. In an eloquent speech there, Mr. Canning said of Sir Thomas, "I have no doubt that the meritorious officer who has been appointed to the Governorship of Madras will in the execution of his duty ever keep in view those measures which will best conduce to the happiness of twelve millions of people." Sir Thomas and Lady Munro embarked for India in Dec 1819. They arrived in Bombay in May 1820 where they were entertained for a fortnight by the Governor, Mr. Elphinstone, and then proceeded by sea to Madras, where they landed on 8 Jun. Sir Thomas Munro was sworn in as Governor of Madras on 10 Jun 1820. He was created first Baronet of Lindertis 6 Aug 1825. After his death, the Madras government erected a statue in his memory. Shortly after India gained independence in 1947, there was considerable violence and most of the statues and other reminders of the former rulers were pulled down or torched. Sir Thomas Munro, however, was so well thought of, even more than 120 years after his death, that his statue was spared. ************************************* The following is from "Clan Munro" compiled by Alan McNie, published in Jedburgh, Scotland. It is from the chapter entitled "Some Clan Notables". Munro, Sir Thomas (1761-1827) This Glaswegian was destined for a mercantile career but the side effects of the American Revolution ruined his father's business. Thomas began a new life in Madras as an infantry cadet. His capabilities were soon rewarded with rapid movement through the ranks, becoming major general, as well as being knighted. With peace he was appointed governor of Madras. ****** The following is a transcription of RW Munro's genealogy notes: [Alexander Munro] «i»Third and only surving son of Daniel Munro(1697-1764) (tailor) and Christian Wylie B.

83642	Timothy is recorded as the "child of Scottish parents who settled in the United States previous to his birth". He was a United Empire Loyalist who lived for a short time in Kingston and in Uxbridge, Ontario, Canada. He spent most of his life in Markham and later in Epsom, where he served for many years as the principal magistrate of Reach Township. He is listed in the 1851 census for Markham Township as a farmer age 52, residence - shanty. These census figures indicate a birth date of about 1799. The census shows that Timothy owned lot 16, conc. 2 and raised a good deal of wheat, oats and peas. He also made maple sugar and owned some horses, sheep, pigs and milk cows. In Markham Township, Timothy was first trustee of Headford Episcopal Church. He and his second wife were married by Rev. William Jennings. Timothy was active in the Rebellion of 1837 on the rebels' side, and was arrested on 15 Mar 1838. (The constable who arrested him was later a pall bearer at his funeral.) His quick release on 12 May 1838, is usually attributed to the good graces of his father-in-law, Major John Button, who was on the government side. While in prison, Timothy carved 3 wooden boxes. All say "from Timothy Munro, in prison, Toronto, 1838. One is inscribed to Mrs Anna Button (his wife's sister-in-law) another to Mr. William Button (her son). Jo Ann Munro Tuskin as one (dedicated to Mr. William button), the second was with the Button family in Stouffville. The third is with Mildred Munro Stewart in Toronto. The inscriptions on two of the boxes read: Top: Mrs. Anna Button Bottom: Alas for Lount & Mathews 12 April 1838 Sides: (1) 1838 (2) O my friends, now cease to languish O're the prisoner whom ye love Chains dark cells, long nights of anguish Ne'er prevent Joys from Above.

Button Sides: (1) from Timothy Munro in prison (2) Toronto (3) I'm clinging to the massy grate Uncertain as to future fate (4) 1838 Timothy seemed to be popular with the Button family for one of Elizabeth's sisters, Polly De Geer, named one of her sons Timothy Munro De Geer. He lived in Uxbridge and was called 'Munro'. Timothy also is found on the 1871 census for Reach Township (near Uxbridge). This census gives Timothy as a Scotch Farmer age 64. His wife, Elizabeth (born in England), is also listed as 64. This would place both of their birthdates in about 1807. That date is probably inaccurate for both of them. Timothy took a prominent part in public affairs while a resident of Reach and was several times a member of the township council. ******** The following is an obituary for Timothy Munro from the Uxbridge Times-Journal, 21 Jan 1892 via The Munros of Mallorytown and Beyond compiled by Jo Ann Munro Tuskin: Timothy Munro, whose death is recorded in this issue, was born in Mallorytown, Leeds, Ontario, on 29 Jul 1803. He afterwards resided in Markham, and married his second wife, a daughter of the late Major Button, of Markham. His brother, the late Henry Munro of Bowmanville, represented West Durham in the Old Parliament of Canada. Timothy Munro moved from Markham to Epsom and during many years he was the principal magistrate of Reach Township. He was all his life an ardent Liberal and a consistent member of the Methodist church. He leaves four sons, and one daughter. Orron Munro of Dunkirk and William Munro of Markham are sons of his first wife, who was Miss Huldah Purdy of Thornhill, and James and N. B. Munro and one daughter are the children of the second marriage. The funeral took place yesterday afternoon at the Methodist Church and Uxbridge cemetery, the sermon being preached by Rev. George J. Bishop of Toronto. ******** From "A History of Richmond Lodge 1824-1974", (The Masons) There is a Munroe, Timothy -- residence: Vaughan; occupation: shoemaker initiated 15 Jan 1829. Comment from Jo Ann Tuskin: since I had never heard of Timothy either being in Vaughan or of being a shoemaker, as the earliest records show him as a farmer, I thought this was not "our" Timothy. However, in his will, he leaves to his daughter, his sewing machine. So, indeed, this may be our Timothy.
