Consequently, there are an enormous number of spelling variations in Medieval Scottish names. Gramont has appeared as Cramond, Crammond, Crawmont, Crawmond, Cramund, Gramond and many more.First found in West Lothian, where they held a family seat from very ancient times, some say well before the Norman Conquest and the arrival of Duke William at Hastings in 1066 A.D.

This is a small excerpt from our full listing of settlers for the name Gramont. Our PDF Extended History provide the complete listing from our dbase of over 500,000 settlers!
The freedom, opportunity, and land of the North American colonies beckoned. There, Scots found a place where they were generally free from persecution and where they could go on to become important players in the birth of new nations. Some fought in the American War of Independence, while others went north to Canada as United Empire Loyalists. The ancestors of all of these Scottish settlers have been able to recover their lost national heritage in the last century through highland games and Clan societies in North America. Among them: William Crammond who arrived in Philadelphia in 1858; James Cramond settled in Philadelphia in 1795.
