I have finished (I think!) the Family History of the Munros of Glenwood, Newfoundland. I have printed about 40 copies and distributed some free to family members who have helped with the research, and also to various Libraries and Clan Munro Associations. Copies are available to others to purchase for $25.00 Canadian plus shipping. The book has 70 pages of text and quite a few pictures, and includes genealogy charts. It deals with the pioneer family of Alexander Munro of Prince Edward Island (who moved to Newfoundland about 1891) and Julia Pelley of Black Island, Notre Dame Bay in Newfoundland. It was prepared mainly for the information of family members, but if anyone else is interested in getting a hard copy, you can contact me at:

You can also use this address to let me know what you like about this site and how you think it can be improved.
Above: Home of the Munro Family of PEI, Whim Road, 1977. We are not
sure of the date the house was built, but during recent renovations, Sandy Munro
found a piece of old newspaper dated 1875. So it is presumed the house predates
that. J. Munro
