A History of the Grant Family of Western North Carolina (Two Vols.), by Marvin A. Grant, Jr. © 2003
Western
North Carolina was home to many Grant families, almost all of whom were
related to each other (whether they knew it or not.) I have documented
the family of William and Mary Grant who came to Rutherford County,
North Carolina from Virginia before the Revolutionary War. They are the
ancestors of a huge number of Grants who settled in various parts of
Western North Carolina and Eastern Tennessee as well as many other
states. Volume One contains all the known descendants of William
and Mary (---) Grant.
Volume
Two contains information on other Grant families in the area as well as
information on related families of Mackey, Bradley, Morris and Dalton.
