Grant, William c 1880 Elgin, Moray
« on: Monday 17 March 08 17:05 GMT (UK) »
I am trying to trace the Grant family and believe there was a William Grant born in Elgin c 1880. He was married to Ellen Sturt and they had a son William born 1923 in Strathdon Aberdeenshire.
I would be grateful for any help on this topic.

Sorry - donīt have much info. Iīm tracing the Grantīs for my cousinīs husband Andrew. He thinks his father was born in Strathdon in 1923 and his mother was Marjorie Cam from CHICHESTER. His grandfather William was married to Ellen Sturt but thats all the info we have. Apparently there was a John Grant who had connections with Queen Victoria at Balmoral.
Thanks for your help.
Lynne
