Hi Suzie, There are also the Grants that were from the Central Caribou area. I believe around Scotch Hill. My gggrandfather was James Grant and he was married to Dolena (AKA Dolly) Morrison (some information found at NSARM on their son Daniel Morrison Grant's death certificate, and some off their gravestone found in the Laurel Hill Cemetery.) On a map of Pictou County from 1892, it shows Daniel Grant's land next to an Alexander Grant. Daniel's land was passed to my grandfather James Arthur Grant and was in the family until after the death of my grandmother Kathleen (MacLean) Grant in 1930. My grandfather had a dairy farm on that land. I have proof of them, but not of Jame's father. It is believed that his father is also Alexander Grant.
