Biography

Elizabeth Grant is a member of Clan Grant.

Elizabeth Grant married, John Grant, who became the 3rd Laird of Glenmoriston.[1][2][3] They had issue:

  1. Patrick, 4th Laird of Glenmoriston.[1]
  2. John, Tutor of Glenmoriston and chamberlain of the lordship of Urquhart.[1]
  3. Duncan, m. Catherine McDonald.[1]

Elizabeth's date of death and location of her burial are unknown.

Research Notes

Elizabeth was the daughter of unknown parents, but two sources say she was the daughter of a 'Laird of Grant'.
With son Patrick born on later than 1589, one can infer Elizabeth's birth prior to 1576.

Looking in the 'Chiefs of Grant' book that is used as a source, it looks like it is saying that John Mor Grant 1st wife was Elizabeth or Isobella, daughter of Walter Innes and granddaughter of Sir Robert Innes. This profile states she is daughter of Robert. https://archive.org/details/chiefsofgrantmv100fras/page/522/mode/2up?q=innes will highlight the Innes found on Page 520


It also says he only had one daughter with her before divorcing her, which does not match the linked children in the profile.
