Generation: 2

  1. 2.  Robert (14th of Fowlis) Munro Descendancy chart to this point (1.Hector1) died on 8 Sep 1547 in Battle Of Pinkie.

    Notes:

    He was known as Robert Mor on account of his large stature.

    Burkes Peerage shows his wife as daughter of Alexander (Sir) (ofWestfield) Dunbar who died 10 March 1497/98 & Isabel (of Duffus)Sutherland

    From Doug Hickling
    THE BARONAGE OF SCOTLAND "Robert of Fowlis, ... (who fell honourablyfighting valiantly for his country in the battle of Pinkie),

    For sources, etc. see information received from Doug Hickling "THEANCESTRY OF MARGARET DUNBAR, WHO MARRIED ROBERT MUNRO, 14TH BARON OFFOULIS" in Notes under Margaret (of Cumnock) Dunbar

    From Doug Hickling:
    "In his HISTORY OF THE MUNROS, MacKenzie says that Robert Munro XIV ofFowlis
    "married Margaret, only daughter of Alexander (Sir) Dunbar of Cumnock and
    Westfield, Sheriff of Morayshire, by his second wife Janet, daughter ofJohn
    Leslie of Parkhill, son of William third Earl of Rothes. The Coul MSsays
    that Dunbar was a daughter of "the Laird of Haggerton Falcken, no doubt
    meaning the family of Falconer of Halkerton, Kincardineshire, from whomthe
    present Earl of Kintore is descended."

    I spent some time yesterday at the Sutro (genealogical) Library in San
    Francisco studying mostly THE SCOTS PEERAGE trying to figure out this Sir
    Alexander Dunbar's ancestry. I had already decided that he could not bethe
    Alexander (Sir) Dunbar of Westfield, son of James (4th Earl of Moray)Dunbar,
    because he died in 1498, which was probably before Janet (or Joan) Lesliewas
    born.

    In v. 7 at page 281, this book says that Joan, the daughter of JohnLeslie of
    Parkhill, son of William 3rd Earl of Rothes, married Alexander (Sir)Dunbar of
    Cumnock, Knight, with issue 2 sons and a daughter. In v. 9, at page 110,
    there is a note that Patrick (Sir) Gordon of Huntly married (1) shortlybefore
    4 February 1578, Jane Leslie, "Moyness, daughter of John Leslie of
    Parkhill and widow of Alexander (Sir) Dunbar of Cumnock. She died inAugust
    1579."

    THE SCOTS PEERAGE apparently does not provide ancestries of mere knights,but
    as I recall the entry for Alexander (Sir) Dunbar of Westfield refers tohim as
    the progenitor of the Cumnock Dunbars. It seems to me that my Alexander(Sir)
    of Cumnock is probably a grandson of the Alexander (Sir) of Westfield,but I
    have found no help in the Roots/Web gedcoms. I see several entries for aSir
    Alexander Dunbar of Conzie, who is a grandson of Alexander (Sir) ofWestfield,
    including your own gedcom entries, but nothing that shows a Alexander(Sir)
    Dunbar of Cumnock."

    Notes:

    Burke's under "Munro of Foulis-Obsdale" only shows three sons and nodaughters. However "The Munro Tree (1734)" (page 17) it shows by hisfirst wife Margaret he had 2 sons and 3 daughters, and by his second wifeCatherin 3 sons & 4 daughters. However in RWM's notes he states that byhis first marriage, Robert had a third son Hugh of Clynes.
