Hello Donna

Apologies for not replying to you earlier.  Unfortunately I do not know if there is a link between my Munro/Grants and yours.   The earliest of my Munro's that I have been able to trace is William Munro who was born c1765. Munro was spelt  Monro on his marriage entry which is dated February 1785. He gave his parish of birth as Keith in Banffshire. His wife was Isobel Addison and the place of marriage was Grange, which is near Deskford in Banffshire.  His son Roberts wife Jane Grant who was born c1819 gave various places for her place of birth, including Grantown on Spey.  Her father's name was John. 

I am sorry that I cannot be of more help to you.

Regards
Johan

hello; I am interested in Munros and Grants. So far I have gone back to Hary Munro and Janet Grant, both from Tomintoul, Banff, who married in 1799. I can proceed to present day through their son James ( 1800- 1877, Kirkmicheal Banff), . James married a Margaret  Clark(1808-1900)October 13, 1831, Crathie, Bramar. their son Charles 1847-1917, married Mary Ann Driscoll and went to Toronto Canada.
I have more info on siblings, the Clarks, and others. Anyone related?? donna
