Our drive north towards Inverness took us through some beautiful countryside and along the way we knew we could make a slight detour to a few places that JT was interested in seeing. His paternal grandmother was Mary Estelle Grant. The Grants originated in Scotland in just this area of the country. There is a Clan Grant gathering place at an old church and mausoleum. There are regular Clan Grant reunions with a lively, active organization. The first sheriff of Inverness was a Grant, the little town of Grantown-on-Spey was a treat to see, as was this church site.
