John Grant (died 1637)

The king and his valet John Wemyss of Logie brought masque costumes and danced at the wedding feast.

James requested that the Laird of Grant send ptarmigan and capercaillie as Scottish speciality foods to impress his retinue on their arrival in Newcastle.

The legal dispute concerned teind duties owed to the Marquess of Huntly and John Gordon of Buckie.

He sold the lands of Lethen to Alexander Brodie of East Grange, as the expenses of managing his estates and visiting Edinburgh were very large.

Additionally, Lilias Murray took up residence at Castle Grant, and in return made over 1000 merks of her annual income to her son.

John Grant commissioned more than a dozen sculptures of heraldic beasts and animals from Ralph Rawlinson in 1629.

James Grant built or refurbished a long gallery, or Ballachastell, now called Castle Grant
