Biography

Robert Grant was a son of Robert Grant and Bridget Hulbert. His father was a producer of cloth at Staverton Mill.[1]

He was presumably the Robert Grannte baptised on 23 Apr 1597 at Trowbridge St James, Wiltshire, son of Robert Grannte of "Staferton".[2]

Robert Grant was noted in the will of his great grandmother Bridget Smyth of Corsham, Wiltshire, the will made on 18 Nov 1606 and proved on 16 Dec 1608.[3] The Testatrix made a bequest to her 'daughter' Bridgett Grannt, Roberts Grannts wife, 20s, and her son Robert, 10s.

There was also a Robert Grannt baptised on 11 Jun 1603 at Bradford upon Avon, Wiltshire, son of Robert.[4]
