Jane Munroe birth about 1830 Scotland
« on: Saturday 13 May 17 19:50 BST (UK) »
Looking for a Jane Munroe born about 1830 but have no detail other than Scotland.

I know of three siblings

Mary Munroe 1836–1876
 
Roderick Munroe 1836–1920
   
Chirstina "Christy" Munroe 1837–1933
 
We know all the above and Jane moved to Canada and passed in or around London, Ontario

Two records for deaths list parents as George Munroe and May Munroe

A hint on another site shows a May Munroe b 1802 and  George Munroe in  Sutherland, Scotland in 1861.  I have not found that on Scotland's People. Searches for births for the children of George and May have found no records. Another hint has a Christy Munroe in Ross and Cromarty in 1851 but again am unable to find on Scotland's People or FreeCen

Have you tried searching under Munro and Monroe?  When I used the wildcard search m*nro* - results were all Munro - no Munroe

Were Mary & Roderick twins - 1836 birthyear for both

Thank you all  for the wealth of information.

I had tried Munroe and Munroe as spellings but did not try wildcard searches. 

The possible twins are based on birth information from Canada census documents so it may be an error by census taker or misinformation from family.
