Munro, Mary
(1708-1748)
Mary Munro (1708-1748) was a member of a prominent Revolutionary-era family and the spouse of John Blair Sr. John Blair Sr was a merchant and public official whose career or family position supplies an important part of this entry’s Revolutionary context. The marriage connected Mary Munro to the political, military, commercial, or social developments surrounding the Revolution. Although this life ended before the fighting for independence began, the marriage and family connections formed part of the colonial society inherited by the Revolutionary generation. Surviving documentation is strongest in genealogical, family, estate, and marriage records rather than in a separate public biography. Including Mary Munro in HistoryGPS recognizes that households, marriages, property, correspondence, hospitality, and kinship networks were essential parts of the world in which Revolutionary leaders acted.
