In 1851 George Grant was living with his parents and some of his siblings in Loth, Sutherland, at Culgower House, where his father was the farm manager. A number of agricultural workers were also living on the property. George's trade was "ploughman" and his place of birth was stated to be Watten, Caithness.[2]
