PREFACE The material for " The Rulers of Strathspey" was originally collected by the Author for the article on Ogilvie-Grant, Earl of Seafield, in The Scots Peerage, edited by Sir James Balfour Paul, Lord Lyon King of Arms. A great deal of the information collected had to be omitted OAving to lack of space. It was thought desirable to publish it in book form, especially as the need of a Genealogical History of the Clan Grant had long been felt. It is true that a most valuable work, " The Chiefs of Grant," by Sir William Fraser, LL.D., was privately printed in 1883, on too large a scale, however, to be readily accessible. The impression, moreover, was limited to 150 copies. This book is therefore published at a moderate price, so that it may be within reach of all the members of the Clan Grant, and of all who are interested in the records of a race which has left its mark on Scottish history and the history of the Highlands. The Chiefs of the Clan, the Lairds of Grant, who succeeded to the Earldom of Seafield and to the extensive lands of the Ogilvies, Earls of Findlater and Seafield, form the main subject of this work.

    Archives & Special Collections, Columbia University Health Sciences Library Auchincloss Florence Nightingale Collection AUCHINCLOSS, HUGH, 1878-1947, collector. FLORENCE NIGHTINGALE FUND LETTERS, 1848-1898 (bulk 1855-1856) 1 cubic foot (3 boxes) BIOGRAPHICAL NOTE: Hugh Auchincloss was born Dec. 28, 1878 in New York City. He was educated at Groton, was graduated from Yale in 1901, and received his medical degree from the College of Physicians and Surgeons (P&S), Columbia University, in 1905. After surgical residencies at Presbyterian and Roosevelt Hospitals in New York, he began a long association with both Presbyterian Hospital and P&S, eventually becoming Chief of the Second Surgical Division of Presbyterian and Professor of Clinical Surgery at P&S. He was best known for his skill in surgery of the hand and of the breast. He died in 1947. Florence Nightingale was born on May 12, 1820, in Florence, Italy to William Edward and Frances Smith Nightingale. Educated at home by her father, she later rejected the traditional role and pursuits of an upper-class Victorian lady to devote herself to nursing reform and public health advocacy. She became an iconic figure in Victorian Britain through her work nursing British troops during the Crimean War (1854-1856). Afterwards, though an invalid for most the rest of her life, Nightingale became an influential voice in government public health policy in late 19th century Britain, especially as it affected India. Nightingale died on August 13, 1910. HISTORICAL NOTE: The Florence Nightingale Fund was created as a result of the work of a group led by author Anna Maria Hall, her husband, journalist Samuel Carter Hall and statesman Sir Sidney Herbert and his wife, writer and prominent social figure Elizabeth Herbert, who in 1855 organized a public subscription to create a testament to Britain’s appreciation Florence Nightingale’s service to the nation during the Crimean War.

Campbell, better known to his intimate friends as "Uncle Bud," passed away quietly at his home in the Magnolia settlement four miles to the west of Laurel Hill, early yesterday (Wednesday) morning. The deceased was 79 years old and one of the first settlers in this section of the State, his great-grandparents being direct descendents from Scotland to America over two hundred years ago. (A biography of the family tree is given below.) The Campbells The following news story is copied from the Pensacola Gazette of December 10, 1842: "There now resides in Walton County, about 75 miles from this (Pensacola place, a man and wife whose united ages is 229 years. The old gentleman's name is Daniel Campbell. He was united to his present wife 94 years ago, on the Isle of Skye, Scotland. He emigrated to this country several years before the Revolution, and was about 50 years old when the war begun. There were no neutrals then and as Mr. Campbell left his native country in consequence of the political troubles of 1745, he was prepared to take part vdth the Colonists against the House of Hanover. He served through nearly the entire Revolutionary War, but although very poor he has not been able to avail himself of the county, or rather of the just remuneration which the pension laws have provided for the survivors of that glorious epoch, because before the passage of the Act of 1832 he was by extreme old age and mental infirmity rendered incapable of making the declaration required by the law.

THE Hamiltons, so far as trustworthy evidence goes, cannot equal in descent either the Stewarts or Douglases, their history beginning about two hundred years later than that of the former, and one hundred years later than that of the latter ; still their antiquity is considerable. In the introduction to the first chapter I have dealt with the suggested earlier origin of the family. The Hamiltons were conspicuous in their loyalty to Queen Mary, and, judging by the number of marriages between members of the different branches, they were also loyal to their race. Throughout their history one hears little of the violent deeds which charac- terised the Stewarts and Douglases, and one may truthfully say the race has generally been a peaceful one.
