    3. My 3rd g-grandparents, Niel MUNRO (1774-1835) & Agnes/Ann MCPHERSON (abt 1785-1855), came from Argyll to Elgin Co, Ontario in about 1827 with 7 sons: John, Donald/Daniel, Neil, Duncan, Colin, Archibald & Dugald. Daughter Mary was born after arrival. I have a lot of information I am willing to share. I'm least sure about John & Donald/Daniel. Colin was Sheriff of Elgin Co for many years. Their son Duncan MUNRO (1811-1899) is my 2nd g-grandfather & married Catherine MCCOWAN (1816-1866). Her parents were Capt. Hugh MCCOWAN (1787-1863) & Isabelle GRAHAM (1789-1876) who also came to Elgin Co. from Argyll in about 1820. Duncan & Catherine had Neil, Nancy, Hugh, Duncan, Colin, Margaret, Alexander, Archibald, Daniel, Isabel & John. Their son Hugh Cowan MUNRO (1840-1909) is my g-grandfather & married Nancy/Agnes CAMPBELL (1848-1932), daughter of Neil CAMPBELL (d aft 1850?) & Betsy MCINTYRE (1826-1867). Betsty/Elizabeth's parents were Duncan MCINTYRE (abt 1780-1870) & Sarah MCPHERSON (1789-1865). I don't know much about Neil CAMPBELL, my 2nd g-grandfather. He apparently died young and Betsy remarried to a John MCKILLOP (d 1888). All of these families came from Argyll, Scotland--primarily Parish of Kilninver & Kilmelford, some from Parish of Craignish. I have collected a lot of information--have recently been going over microfilms of Parish birth & marriage records & piecing together family in Scotland. I'd be delighted to correspond with anyone connected to these Argyll-Elgin Co. lines and willing to share all my information. D. Lou Ritter, Kalamazoo, MI
