What evidence do have that Elizabeth's parents were from Boston? All of James Francis Munroe's residences that I could find are in Masschusetts. It looks like he never married, because he is listed as single in his censuses from 1900-1930. Otherwise he would be listed as divorced or widowed, right? I think you might have the wrong parents. Here's his info:
