Hello Elspeth,
Saw your replies when we were visiting the grandchildren so a delay before I was able to rootschat. Yes, your cousin Lynne and I would like to share Munro information and a PM would be appropriate - you need 3 posts before you can use private messaging. I have gone back to John Munro b.1752 but over that timespan there is room for error! Lynne has tried to keep in contact with Sheila but we have heard nothing for a couple of years.
This may interest you - your grandmother Jessie Munro had a brother Roderick Macdonald, Plumber in Pampa, Texas, USA.
