Sir Hector Munro, 1st Baronet

Sir Hector Munro, 1st Baronet of Foulis was a Scottish soldier, noble and clan chief of the highland Clan Munro.[1] He is also by tradition the 19th Baron and 22nd overall chief of the clan.[1] He is however the 12th chief of the Clan Munro who can be proved by contemporary evidence.[2]

Hector Munro, 1st Baronet was the younger brother of Robert Munro, 18th Baron of Foulis (the Black Baron) who left only daughters and was therefore succeeded in the chiefship of his clan by his younger brother Hector. They were both sons of Hector Munro, 17th Baron of Foulis.[1]
