[Note: see note about death date.]
The probate of Anna's father Person:Nathaniel Kendall (2) makes a payment to Moses Tyler as guardian of her heirs. Anna Munroe married Moses Tyler in 1770 according to Woburn VRs, p. 3:287, implying John had died by then. Thus, the death date recorded in Lexington VRs, p. 189, for John Munroe on 28 Apr 1768, is probably his. However, Hudson has given this death date to an older John Munroe (albeit with a question mark affixed), and goes on to credit this John Munroe with service in the Revolution. While it is possible he is right about the death date, he seems wrong about the Revolutionary Service, and that error makes it likely he is wrong about the death date as well.
