Talk:Robert Munro, 18th Baron of Foulis

Major re-write needed

edit

I've started re-writing the Munro of Foulis article, based largely on the recently published article in the Oxford National Dictionary of Biography (2004). The existing article is based on a 19th century text which mixes up Munro of Foulis with Robert Monro of Obsdale.

I would appreciate it, if no-one reverts to previous version. Otherwise I will just give up and leave it as is. [16 November 2006].

Great edit by the way, well done! mjgm84 14:03, 9 December 2006 (UTC)Reply

Confusion with other Munros/Monros

edit

I think much of this article has confused much of the history Robert Munro, 18th Baron of Foulis with that of his cousin, General Robert Monro. Both served in the Thirty Years War. Robert 'Monro' to a much greater extent. I'm sure there has been some confusion of history of the two related men in this article. QuintusPetillius (talk) 18:26, 10 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

I have since re-edited the article using "Alexander Mackenzie's History of the Munros of Fowlis". This is a 19th century book but was the only one available with a section specifically about Robert Munro, 18th Baron of Foulis.QuintusPetillius (talk) 18:41, 11 August 2009 (UTC)Reply
