Grant of Glenmoriston

Based at Invermoriston, their lands revolved around the River Moriston, near Loch Ness.

[2] Tradition holds that the Clan Grant was of royal Nordic or Gaelic extraction, though in reality most likely descended from Anglo-Normans.

[4][5] John Grant, 6th of Glenmoriston (who married a daughter of Sir Ewen Cameron of Lochiel – a union which formed close ties between the families) was a committed Jacobite and fought at the Battle of Killiecrankie in 1689.

Following the decisive Battle of Culloden in April 1746, it is believed that 80 Grants of Glenmoriston were captured and enslaved in Barbados.

The "Seven men of Glenmoriston", led by one Peter Dubh Grant, became notorious outlaws in the aftermath of Culloden.
