HON. DEA
SQUIRE MANRO, born
Rehoboth Mass.
June 27, 1757,
died
March 31, 1835
in his 78. y'r.
A respected Citizen;
a kind Husband;
an affectionate Parent;
an unwavering Christian.
As a steward for God
BENEVOLENT-
The Christian companion,
& the poor man's friend.

Onon. Cent. styles Squire Manro "a veteran of the Revolution," who settled on lot 31 in 1799. Chase also called him "the Revolutionary soldier, Squire Manro," and Clayton used similar words. That his name does not appear on the rolls, notoriously defective, will not militate against the claim when his military tastes are considered. It is scarcely conceivable that he had no part in the conflict. In 1790 he was in Lanesborough, Mass., and in the S. A. R. membership of Henry M. LeRoy he is called a corporal.
