Father, in the Church-yard". With elaborate decoration, and inscriptions in Latin and English language, which were renewed in 1848 and again in 1901, the monument was left in position when neighbouring stones were cleared away a few in years ago. Now, by its latest restoration, it is once more a fitting reminder of the man it commemorates: "Sincere and active in the service of his friends, humane and forgiving to his enemies, generous and benevolent to all, his death was universally regretted even by those who slew him." Family Sir Robert Munro, 6th Baronet married Mary, daughter of the Hon. Henry Seymour of Woodlands, Dorset, speaker of the House of Commons. According to historian Alexander Mackenzie they had the following four children: Robert Munro, who died in infancy. Sir Harry Munro, 7th Baronet, heir and successor. George Munro, who was an officer in the Royal Navy and who died unmarried in 1743. Elizabeth Munro, who died in infancy. Simon Munro, (1741–1790), although not mentioned as a son of Sir Robert Munro, 6th Baronet by Mackenzie, other sources claim that one Simon Munro who was a slave trader and who had a plantation in the Province of Georgia granted to him by George III of the United Kingdom was the son of Sir Robert and his wife Mary Seymour. However, the year of Simon's birth, 1741, is nine years after the death of Mary Seymour in 1732 so she could not have been his mother. Simon was apparently a 9th son and therefore had no inheritance and so he went to America and built up a mercantile business. Simon left five children: Elizabeth, Harry, Jane Seymour, Amarintha and Ann West Munro.
