BIOGRAPHY: Bir-Mar-Ord; FGR Film #1274171 [Borderbund WFT Vol. 2, Ed. 1, Tree #2235, Date of Import: Nov 9, 1997] THE ENGLISH GRANTS BY BERYL N GRANT CLAN GRANT GENEA LOGIST Research on two early lines of Grants who came to America in the early 1600's, trace them to Lincolnshire and Yorkshire, England. I refer to the Matthew Grant born 1601 in Dorset and who with his wife Priscilla emigrated from Plymouth to Dorchester, MA on the ship, Mary and John, and who was one of the founders of Windsor, CT. His father, john Grant, b,1574 (wife Alice Turberville of Woolbridge, Dorset) was the son of George Grant, son of john Grant and Jane Belford who married in Roxby in 1570. This information was reported at the 6th reunion of the Grant family association in ny city in 1914. This family traces back in Roxby, Yorkshire to one William Graunt living in the middle of the 15th century. There is question as to the location of Roxby, whether in Yorkshire or Lincolnshire. There is a Roxby, Lincolnshire located nine miles sw of Barton-on-Humber, Yorkshire which would place the family with the second family below. The second family settled in Rowly, MA. And is documented in the Hazen family history. Hannah Grant, born 1631 in Rowley and who married Edward Hazen of Cadney, Lincolnshire, England in Rowley traces her line to Thomas Grant b 1601 in Hassle, Yorkshire(wife Jane Haburne); his father is john Grant b 1567 in Cottingham, Yorkshire, England, (wife Jane Watson). The location of both these families is very close, near Barton-on-Humber and Kingston-upon-hull and it is my belief that these lines are collateral lines. Lord Strathspey's book on the history of clan Grant traces the chiefs of the clan back to Sir Laurence le Grant(1258-1266) son of William and Aldreda, who was sheriff of Inverness in 1263. A history of the Grants by Archie Mckerracher published in" the highlander" traces the surname of Grant to a Norman knight, le Grant, who came to England with William the conqueror in 1066. His descendent, William le Grant, held lands in Nottinghamshire (near Lincolnshire and Yorkshire, England) through his wife Aldreda who was a member of the bissett family who had been Granted land around Stratherick and beauly in the Moray Firth area of Scotland. An article by Maran Mccormick also states the Anglo-Norman origin and that William and Alfreda Bissett Grant held manor of east Bridgeford in Nottinghamshire, England. This account also states that there is claim to descent from Kenneth Macalpine, king of Scotland in the 9th century. I have been told that many of the scotch clans can trace their beginnings to the Norman in vasion.. Many of our clan members who trace their families back to England are wondering about their ties to Scotland. In many cases Scots who moved down to England, particularly Yorkshire, for economic reasons as this was one of the center for the woolen trade. It might also be that this family might be descended from the le Grants who settled in this corner of the midlands of England and would be related very distantly to the Grants in Scotland. In either case i feel that if one were able to trace far enough on the Yorkshire Grants which I feel has already been to the best of anyone's ability) they would fine that either of the above reasons would be valid.
