The Monroe Book, by Joan S. Guilford, Genelaogy Publishing Co., Franklin, NC, 1993, page 656, has Norman listed as a Monroe who is unconnected to other Monroe families. It states:
“NORMAN, b. ca. 1815; m. JANE (-----), b. ca. 1821: Ch.: HARRIET, b. ca. 1834 (by prev. wf.) in NY; BRIDETT, a male ch., b. ca. 1840 in OH; living in 1850 at Bennington, Shiawasee Co., MI, a farmer with $400 in prop. He is prob. also fa. of JESSE, b. ca. 1832, a wid. at Bennington in 1880 with a dau. MYRTIE, b. ca. 1869.”

In the 1825 New York Census, Samuel S. Munrow was living at Windsor, Broome Col, David Monroe was living in Sanford, Broome Co., and George L. and George W. Monroe were living in Colesville, Broome Co. In 1840 Elisha W. Monroe was living in Lisle, Broome Co.

Norman first married Jane Loveland, daughter of Arnold Loveland (25 Aug 1778-26 Jul 1864) & Clarinda Twitchell (21 Jul 1781-9 Feb 1843). Born on 22 May 1815 in Oxford, CT.3

Is the Jane Loveland who married Norman Monroe the Jane, wife of Norman Monroe and mother of William Burdette Monroe?

LDS show Jane had a first husband John Pentzil, and Norman was the second. The Loveland Genealogy3 only mentions Norman Monroe.
