Aberdeenshire / Re: Robert Munro born 9 May 1836

Hi All,
I have ordered my great grandfathers birth certificate (Alexander John Munro) and also his parents marriage certificate for more information.  But it wasnt Sarah McNee on the marriage certificate by Sarah Macull. So will share more when they arrive. Thanks for helping. Angela

Hi AMBLY,
Yes my Robert Munro had those 7 children with Sarah McNee in an area called Little River NZ.
My great grandfather was the surviving twin.
We believe he died in 1873. On his marriage certificate, his occupation was listed as Constable.
We dont know any thing about Sarah McNee at all other than she died in 1916.

The Publican is not the same Robert Munro.

I am trying to track Robert's family back a bit.
Thanks for your help.
Angela

Hi Annie,
A non family member did a quick search and came up with the information about Aberdeenshire or Inveraray. The information we definitely know for sure is that he came to New Zealand on the Clontarf arriving 1859 and these records listed him as 22 years old. Searching for Robert Munro born 1836 I get 2. One born in Petty and the other born Old Monkland or Coatbridge from Parish records. But we may have the wrong birth date for him if he needed to be a certain age to get on the boat. Just trying to see if i can track a bit further for the family. Thanks for your message - much appreciated.

Aberdeenshire / Robert Munro born 9 May 1836

Kia ora,
Searching for information on my GGG grandfather Robert Munro who was born 6/5/1836 (or so) and who emigrated to New Zealand on the ship The Clontarf landing 5 January 1859. He was approximately 22 years of age then. He made a life in the South Island of New Zealand and at one time worked as a Police Constable. We believe he had 7 children.

We are led to believe he was born in Aberdeenshire but there is information floating around that he could come from Inveraray.
We have no information on his family in Scotland.
Any help would be much appreciate.
Kind regards,
Angela  - New Zealand.

Hi Sam,
My name is Angela and my grandmother was Marjorie Mary Munro - John Alexander Munro's daughter and probably your great Aunt.  My mum Paula has some information about the family so let me know if you are interested in seeing what she has. Cheers  Angela
