I must have missed the first part of this dialog, but may I add, the term Urquhart also reffers to the area and the remains of Urquarth Castle, on the shores of Loch Ness in Scottland, near Inverness. This area of Scottland is the location from which the "Grant" clan orginates. Grant, is one of my other family groups, as is Couch.
