Captain E. Grant MC, Nairn. Seaforth Highlanders. Later Brigadier, Eneas Grant was born in 1901, and belonged to a family which served in the Seaforth Highlanders for four generations. He served in the regiment from 1920 to 1955, when he retired to his house and hill farm at Tomatin. Both his sons joined the Seaforth, the elder being killed in action in Korea in 1951 (see ref no. 542). The supplement to the London Gazette of October 1945 announced 'The KING has been graciously pleased to approve the following awards in recognition of gallant and distinguished services in North-West Europe: Brigadier (acting) Eneas Henry George GRANT, D.S.O., M.C.

Grant and of Mrs I. Grant, Balnespick, Tomatin, and his house is at Auchenfroe, Nairn.

Isle of Lewis men. Alexander MacLeod was born around 1900 in a village just outside of Stornoway. A passionate photographer, Alec kept some type of camera (still and motion) close by his side for his entire adult life. The photos in his collection are invariably of family and friends and scenic shots from around Stornoway (possibly Laxdale), travels in the Highlands and around the world. A few of these Highland images from the early 1900s have been submitted to the SHPA archive by his grandson Iain MacLeod of Nova Scotia. #
