Life

He was the son of Nathan Munro (1791–1839) and Cynthia (Champlin) Munro (1796–1877). He was born in that part of the Town of Camillus which was separated in 1829 as the Town of Elbridge, in Onondaga County, New York. He married Caroline A. Clark, and they had two children.

He was a member of the New York State Senate (22nd D.) from 1852 to 1855, sitting in the 75th, 76th, 77th and 78th New York State Legislatures.

He died in Elbridge, and was buried at the Oakwood Cemetery in Syracuse.
