Discussion
This edition of Landed Gentry, published in 1879, was the first to contain a genealogy of the Monros of Allan. It diverges greatly from the Munro tree laid out in the manuscript compiled in 1734 and is not supported by contemporary documents.

As put forward by Burke:
- ANDREW MONRO, m. 1511, Euphamie Dunbar. He was succeeded in the estate of Milntown by his eldest son, George Munro, and the lands of Allan and Allanmore he gave to his 2nd son,
- WILLIAM MONRO, of Allan, b. 1535, who married Catherine, daughter of Brigadier Shaw, and by her had one son,
- ANDREW MONRO b. 1560, who married Mary Ross, and was succeeded by his son,
- DAVID MONRO, b. 1600, whose only son and successor,
- DAVID MONRO, b. 1640, leaving by Mary his wife, daughter of Sir John Davis, a son and successor,
- DAVID MONRO, who married Elizabeth Ross, daughter of the Laird of Balblair, and had one son,
- DAVID MONRO, Esq., his successor, an Advocate in Edinburgh, who left his estate in 1765 to his nephew, son of his sister, Margaret who married Charles Mackenzie, and had by him a son,
- CHARLES, of whom presently, as devisee of his uncle DAVID MONRO, Esq.
He begins with Andrew of Milntown, stating that he was in possession of both Milntown and Allan. Milntown he left to his eldest son George and Allan went to his 2nd son William.
The issues with this, and each generation following, are detailed in the notes section below.
What we can say is that this Andrew Monro of Milntown was never in possession of Meikle Allan. It's not clear where Burke got this idea. The Munro tree, which was written in 1734,[1] does state that Andrew's son William was 1st of Allan,[2] but very little in Burke's genealogy agrees with the Munro tree, so it's not clear whether he had access to it or not.
In 1885, Alexander Ross repeated this idea that Andrew of Milntown left Allan to his 2nd son William in his Munros of Milntown series in Celtic Magazine. The editor of this edition of the magazine was Alexander Mackenzie. In 1898, Mackenzie published his History of the Munros, repeated this idea, and thanked Alexander Ross for his collection of genealogical matter relating to the Munros which greatly helped and expedited the compilation of his work.[3]
Alexander Ross stated, "In 1569 King James granted to Andrew Munro the escheat of all the goods upon the quarter lands of Meikle Allan, with the crops of that year, which was forfeited by John Leslie, Bishop of Ross, for treason and lese-majesty."[4] Mackenzie duplicated this sentence almost word-for-word.[5]
What we find in Origines parochiales, however, is that, "In 1569 King James VI. granted in heritage to Andrew Monro of Newmoir the escheat of all the goods upon the quarter lands of Mekill Allane, with the crops of that year, which were forfeited by John bishop of Ross for treason and lesemajesty."[6] This sentence, again, is almost identical to the one published by Alexander Ross 30 years later.
What we see here, though, is that the Andrew Monro who was granted the quarter lands of Meikle Allan in 1569 was not Andrew of Milntown, but his grandson Andrew of Newmore.
Origines parochiales also states that, "The lands of the mairdom of Allane belonged at the Reformation either wholly or partly to the bishop of Ross, who includes them in his rental given up between 1561 and 1566 to the collector of thirds."[6] This means that they were not in the possession of this Monro family prior to 1569.
It's surprising that both Alexander Ross and Alexander Mackenzie repeated the error made by Burke and the Munro tree, crediting Andrew of Milntown with the grant of Allan in 1569. In his Celtic Magazine series, Ross stated that, "Andrew Beg Munro, III. of Milntown, died at Milntown Castle, "in great extravagance and profusion," before 1541."[7] Mackenzie in the History of the Munros, stated that Andrew of Milntown "died at Milntown Castle "in great extravagance and confusion," before 1522".[8] It should have been clear to both of them that Andrew of Milntown was not alive in 1569 in order to receive a grant from the king.
It seems that we should take the genealogies laid out in each of these sources and adjust them so that they begin with Andrew of Newmore instead of his grandfather Andrew of Milntown. In several cases, we get a tree that agrees much more closely with what we find in contemporary documents. Unfortunately, that cannot be said for this genealogy laid out in Burke's Landed Gentry. He diverges greatly from what we know from documents and includes plenty of embellishments. Unfortunately, Mackenzie repeated some of these in his History of the Munros.
The first generation of the Monros of Allan that can be proven conclusively is that of Andrew Monro of Wester Allan, great-grandson of Andrew of Newmore. He first appears in known records in a discharge dated 1610 by George Monro of Tarrell in favour of Andrew Monro of Allan .[9] This George of Tarrell was the son of Andrew of Newmore.
Rossiana
The Monros of Allan are of interest to this project because of the claim that 'DAVID MONRO m. Elizabeth Ross, dau. of the Laird of Balblair'. This statement is incorrect, but has found it's way into many Ross resources.
In his paper on the Ross family published in Northern Notes & Queries in 1889, Francis Nevile Reid repeated this information about David Monro, who married Elizabeth Ross, daughter of the Laird of Balblair.
(I.) Elizabeth, married David Munro, sixth of Allan, and had a son David, W.S., Edinburgh, who in 1765 left his estate to his nephew Charles, son of Margaret Munro and Charles M'Kenzie, who assumed the name of Munro.[11]
When Harmon Pumpelly Read included Reid's genealogical tables as part of Rossiana published in 1908, he reproduced this paragraph verbatim.
Read included, as part of the second half of the book, which he authored himself, a section called 'Monro of Allan'. The genealogy he gives for the family of Monro of Allan is, almost word-for-word, the same genealogy given by Burke. Oddly, in the paragraph where Read credits Landed Gentry, he deviates from Burke in a way that actually introduces more errors. He states that David Monro Esq. was the husband of Elizabeth Ross, not her son.
DAVID MONRO, of Allan, Esq., was the ancestor of
- the present DAVID MONRO, Esq., of Allan, Co.
- Ross. J. P. and D. L. for Cos. Ross and Cromarty.
- (Burke, Landed Gentry.) He married
- ELIZABETH ROSS, daughter of DAVID ROSS,
- of Balblair, and his wife, Margaret.[12]
Mackenzie published his History of the Munros of Fowlis in 1898, 10 years before Read published Rossiana. It includes many details from Burke that were incorrect, but corrections had been made to the generations pertaining to the Rosses.[13] It appears, however, that Read had only consulted Burke and was not aware of the corrections made by Mackenzie. Unfortunately, this means that Burke's errors are found in Rossiana, both in the genealogical tables in the front and the 'Monros of Allan' section in the back.
What we know from contemporary documents is that Joseph Monro married Bessie Ross, daughter of David Ross of Balblair.[14] Joseph & Bessie lived at Wester Allan, but Joseph leased the land and was, therefore, never 'of Allan'. Joseph's brother, John, lost the land to William Ross of Easterfearn and Joseph's son, David Monro W.S., purchased it back many years later. This was not a succession of the land.
Wester Allan timeline
There were two estates, Meikle Allan and Little Allan, situated next to each other near Fearn Abbey. Prior to 1628, this area would've been part of Tarbat Parish and, afterwards, Fearn Parish.[15]
Meikle Allan was divided into several portions that were owned and/or occupied by different families over time. The portion that pertains to the Monro family outlined here is the west quarter called Wester Allan or Balinroich.[16]
- 1477 - Grant to the Countess of Ross included 20 marklands of Mekle Alane and 10 marklands of Litill Allane confirmed by King James III[17]
- circa 1607 - The second son of the said Mr. William Ross, called Walter Ross of Shandwick, had a tack of the King, the wester quarter of Meikle Earles Allan, quhilk now William Munro possesses[18]
- 25 December 1611 - Andreas Munro of Neoumoir died[19]
- 1687 - Do., Joseph Munro broyr. german to Jon. Munro portioner of Mickle Allan to Geo. Cumenn mert. burgess of Inverness.[20]
- circa 1690 - Heretors, Wadsetters, and liferenters within the shyre of Ross, Tarbet Parish, Jon Monro of Meikle Allan, Margaret Davies his mother, Geo. Stronach of Balblair, David Ross Nor. Pubt. there, and Jon Stronach there[21]
- 29 January 1695 - Contract of Marriage between Joseph Munro, son of the deceased David Munro, sometime of Wester Allan, on the one part, and David Ross of Balblair and Bessie Ross, his second daughter, on the other part[22]
- 12 October 1727 - Assignation by Bessie Ross, relict of Joseph Monro, sometime of Nether Allan, with consent of Alexander Stroanach, mason in Seafield, her present husband, in favour of Evan Baillie, writer in Inverness, of an annualrent on 1800 merks and half the conquest and moveables pertaining to the said Joseph Monro contained in and due to the said Bessie Ross by contract of marriage dated 29 January 1695, and also £84 disbursed by the said Bessie Monro on the funeral of said Joseph Monro[23]
- 25 January 1731 - Contract of Marriage between Joseph Munro, son of the deceased David Munro, sometime of Wester Allan, and Bessie Ross, daughter of David Ross of Balblair, registered B. of C. & S.[22]
- 9 September 1756 - Death of Mr. Munro's mother at 5:00 in the afternoon. Mr. Donald Ross was acquainted immediately, so he wrote to Teaninich, Kindeace, Mr. Rose & David Ross the Clerk; there was a throwing burial especial of gentry, Mrs. Ross in Taine attended at Meikle Allan as a lund Lady for two days & two nights so she got all things to her mind.[24]
