Hi,
My connection to this thread is through a Marjory Munro born 1728. I am hoping that I can connect her to this family.
Marjory married a James Symon 1753. Daughter Mary married  Garden from Rannachie.
Can you link to Marjory?
Look forward to any comments

Hi Andrew Walker

Good to contact you. Elsie Ann Munro was my great aunt who married Donald McRae a fireman on the railways in Scotland until he married Elsie in June 1895 and emigrated to S Africa to be a locomotive engine driver out there. I have a pic of Elsie and her 4 other sisters, one being my gran.  You will find that you have another relative Penny from S Africa on here doing research and she is even closer to your line than me. Are you related to Campbell McRae the son of Donald and Elsie? If so I have a pic of Campbell too for you.
cheers

Hi Andrew,

I'm another descendant of the George Munro clan. My grandfather, John Munro (1875), was Elsie's sister. John immigrated to Canada and later to the U.S.

I think we have counted 13 kids for George and Ann Lawrence so there are a lot of us out there.

Correction on previous post (which I just reread). Should read my grandfather John Munro was Elsie's "brother".
