GRANT, George 1 2
User ID: G733. General Notes: "George (Grant), who claimed the estates of his grandfather, John Grant of Culcabock, but unsuccessfully. It appears, however, that the appellant's mother was divorced, as on the 19th May, 1538, in a charter by Archibald Campbell of Glenlyon to her in liferent of the lauds of 'Cestall, Ballemakiuteyr, luveringlas,' etc., the reason is given that it is in view of future matrimony (intuitu matrimonii futuri). He seems to have predeceased his father(that is to say, unless he is the same as George Grant in Invernan, afterwards in Aldoch, but in that case he must have been passed over in favour of his younger and legitimated brother by the second wife, Patrick)." |
