Notes for Sir Arthur Henry Grant Bart
At the wedding of his half-brother, William Arthur Gillett, the guests included, from the present list, a Mr & Mrs Grant. Probably this was him and if so, shows that he married.
When I wrote the above I had no idea he later inherited the baronetcy. I owe this discovery and that of his ancestors to Rosemary Webb.
He probably died in Scotland.
