A message from the Chief of Clan Grant:
Lord Strathspey,Sir James Grant of Grant, Baron of Nova Scotia
IThe Clan has been in existence for nearly 1000 years and during this time has formed a fascinating and varied history.
Information on the Clan and its clansfolk was formerly distributed by word of mouth and later by print. It is not surprising that the lines of communication were stretched when some of the Grants drifted away from the homelands due to economic pressures.
Grants have always been adventurous and many have settled in a surprising number of lands overseas.
The advent of the internet offers a great potential for these connections to be reforged on a worldwide basis with all Grants associated families. The internet broadens the scope and offers the Clan the opportunity of presenting authentic and accurate information on its history and traditions, as well as reporting on future developments.
I am pleased to report that the Clan Grant Societies here in the UK,in Australia,Canada and the United Atates of America are active and growing.
They have my full support as the 33rd Chief of the Clan:
of the two present Baronets of the Clan; Dalvey (1688,) Monymusk (1705) ):
of their officers and membership
all of whom are enthusiastic that these Society will continue to serve us all and proudly continue to carry the traditions and spirit of the Clan forward into the years ahead.
I am confident the future of the Clan Grant Societies is assured.
I hope you will enjoy your visit to our website; that it will encourage you to correspond with us and become a regular visitor; and that it may encourage you to join the Clan Grant Society in the UK or one of the overseas societies.
