'He occurs as a witness in several Grant charters from 1553 to 1581. On 9th January 1553 he was served heir to his father, John Grant in Gartinbeg, in town of (?)maye. On 3d May 1568 he signed a decreet-arbitral for the settlement of a dispute between
the Lairds of Freuchie and Kinchirdie, respecting the marches of their lands. He entered into a contract, on 6th December 1565, with Patrick Grant of Dalvey, for the marriage of his daughter Janet to Dalvey's eldest son Patrick, and in 1581, as son and heir to the deceased John Makconachie Grant in Gartinbeg, granted a discharge of the reversion of the lands of Tullochcrue. He is said to have married Mary Rose, "and to have had four sons and two daughters. Another account states that he was twice married, that the eldest son of the first marriage died s.p., and that Duncan was succeeded in Gartinbeg by the eldest son of the second
marriage.'
