Excerpt from The Monros of Auchinbowie and Cognate Families My object has been to trace and arrange as accurately as possible the historical material relating to a branch of the Monro family, which I have called for convenience the 'Monros of Auchinbowie.' As I have made a full disclosure of my authorities, and have provided a copious index, I hope the book may be useful to other workers in the field of genealogy. I have included the Binning family, as they were direct ancestors of Mrs. Alexander Monro (Secundus), whose younger son, David, inherited the family name and traditions from his cousin, William Binning, the last of his race. The last five chapters deal with the Scotts of Bavelaw and the Boyds of Kipps and of Temple. They also were direct ancestors of the later Monros through the Binnings, and though I have little to offer except the bare facts of genealogy and land-transfer, I have included them for the sake of completeness. I must gratefully acknowledge the kindness of my friend, Mr. James Steuart, W.S., who read my manuscript, and made several valuable suggestions.
