MACPHERSON-GRANT, GEORGE (1839–1907), inducted between 1920–1948
Sir George Macpherson-Grant, 3rd Baronet, succeeded to the Macpherson-Grant Baronetcy of Ballindalloch, in the County of Elgin, Scotland, at the death of his father in 1850. The hereditary honor of baronet carries the title “Sir,” but is distinct from knighthood. Sir George Macpherson-Grant had the oldest herd of polled Aberdeen Angus cattle in Scotland when he started improving the breed. The addition of the cow Erica in 1860 started the most celebrated Ballindalloch bloodline.
