Al Gore
The name "Mounce" is unusual, as is "Ingabo", but Mounce Byrd (d. 1793) was a son of Andrew Byrd (d. 1750) and Magdalen Jones, daughter of Mounce Jones (Måns Jonasson, 1663-1727) and his wife Ingabo (Ingeborg Pedersdotter Lyckon, 1663-after 1727), emigrants from Sweden to Pennsylvania. Note that Al Gore is not descended from these Swedes.
Mounce Gore Butler (1849-1917), was a U.S. Representative from Tennessee.

FURTHER NOTES
The National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution (NSDAR) publishes a Patriot Index, a list of persons whose honorable service in the cause of independence during the American Revolution renders their female descendants eligible for membership in the NSDAR. Several ancestors of Al Gore appear in the Patriot Index, including:
John Gore (number 64)
Samuel Pearson (number 418)
Hezekiah Robinson (number 72)
David Stephenson (number 208)
Moses Todd (number 212)
While Mr. Gore is not eligible for membership in the NSDAR (by not being female), he is eligible for membership in the equivalent organization for men, the National Society of the Sons of the American Revolution.
FURTHER NOTES
Several persons have claimed that the author Gore Vidal is related to Al Gore. While it's true that all of us are related, it doesn't appear that Al Gore and Gore Vidal share any traceable Gore ancestors.
Eugene Luther Vidal, Jr., alias "Gore Vidal", was born in Washington, D. C., on 3 October 1925, the son of Eugene Luther Vidal and Nina Gore, daughter of Sen. Thomas Pryor Gore, U.S. Senator from Oklahoma 1907-1921 and 1931-1937 by his wife Nina Kay. The National Cyclopedia of American Biography, in Vol. XXXVI [1950], on p. 22, says that Sen. Thomas Gore was a son of Thomas Madison Gore and Caroline Elizabeth Wingo, a grandson of Ezekiel Fletcher Gore and Mary Green, a great-grandson of Thomas T. Gore and Nancy Sanders, and a great-great-grandson of James Gore, who came from Ireland about 1775 and settled in Frederick County, Maryland.
As shown above, Vice President Al Gore's immigrant Gore ancestor was John Goare of Middlesex County, Virginia, who arrived before 1677. If there was any connection between James Gore and John Goare, it would have to have been before they emigrated (separately) to North America, but their origins are (currently) unknown.
