    [6120] !FHL BRITISH BOOK AREA 929.241 G767f The Chiefs of Grant / by William Fraser.
    Volume 1 page 499. III. 2. -SIR JOHN GRANT, KNIGHT.
    Named as a prisoner at Halidon Hill in 1333. He was in the Earl of Moray's
    division, and he is probably the same John Grant who receifed a charter of the
    lands of Dovely from John Randolph, Earl of Moray, in 1346, with the custody of
    the Castle of Darnaway. He is repeatedly found in the train of the Earl of
    Mar, and had several safe-conducts backwards and forwards from England to
    Scotland on the Earl's business. In 1363 he received a safe-conduct for
    himself and Elizabeth his wife, and also for himself and his tenants of his
    town of Easter Gordon, in "le Merskes" in Scotland, to come into England with
    the goods, etc., and their business being done, to return. In 1364 he appears
    at Kindromy Castle as witness to a charter by Thomas Earl of Mar. In 1366 he
    had a safe-conduct to pass into England or across the sea. In 1368 he is a
    witness to a charter by Thomas of Baloil, brother to Thomas Earl of Mar, at
    Cavers. He married a lady whose Christian name was Elizabeth, but her surname
    has not been ascertained. He died about 1370.
