Yes,Murdo is my great great grandfather

Murdo, his older brother George was my great grandfather. A nice discovery & a happy St Andrew's Day! Once you make another couple of posts we can use the PM cousin!

I have been fortunate in having someone from my post two years ago who did a great deal of research for me and found all the Grants descendants from Alexander Grant b.1772 m. Jessie (Janet) McLennan and I have no Rodericks and no daughters.

 All children were born in Contin and several of the children came to New Zealand

George did marry Helen Mackenzie, she came from Fearn & they brought up their family in the Townhead, Glasgow. Roddy, Johnnie, Andrew & Annie. Andrew, called after Helen's father, was my grandfather.
