    1. Re: [LOYALISTS] John Grant UEL
    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Author: young1451 Surnames: Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/topics.loyalists/704.1/mb.ashx Message Board Post: Recently I too discovered that Grant (Duldreaggan) , John aka John Duldreggan Grant aka Mr John Grant as he appears on Lots 25 & 26 Street Road Charlottenburg Glengarry McNiff's Map 1786 had been inserted on the UEL list . Supposedly someone from the Vancouver Branch of UELAC had it PROVEN . This same Vancouver Branch UELAC has apparently misplaced the records of this , as apparently the National UELAC has as well . Curiouser and curiouser . This same John Duldreggan Grant had remained in Scotland with his 9 children into year 1785 when he and 8 of his children [no wife] boarded Ship [ship's name in dispute] and destination Glengarry Canada . By deceit or misadventure the Ship put in at New York , where they overwintered , and they came overland to Glengarry in 1786 . This John Duldreggan Grant never took up land or settled in the American Colonies prior to the Rev War ending in 1783 . How does this make him a Loyalist ! He married a Mary McIntyre in Montreal and had 8 more! kids with her , yet I have not seen any Land Petitions from any of his 16 children as s/d of a UE . Why can't UELAC furnish their PROOF !!! I am eager to hear other's thoughts on this matter . Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
