Posted - September 11 2003 : 3:38:42 PM So if there was a real Colonel Munro - as asserted in the "Montcalm-Historical Accuracy" thread, what do we know about him? Was he a Scot, did he have two daughters, did they come to visit him at Fort William Henry? Did the guy that Cooper based his Hawkeye character on ever come into contact with him? Was he killed in the Massacre at William Henry? |

Posted - September 11 2003 : 5:21:36 PM Greetings,
I am going to assume, perhaps falsely, that you have not yet explored in full this amazing website. If so, I strongly urge you to go to the home page and scroll down. You will see a plethora of links to an amazing amount of great information. One such link, the one about history, will take you to the real history of each of the real players in LOTM. Regarding the real Monro, go here:

This website is vast -- and well worth the time for curious minds to explore it.
