Biographical notes:

At the suggestion of his Harvard roommate O. W. Williams, lawyer George A. Grant moved to Dallas in 1878.

Shortly after Grant's arrival, the two men joined a ten-man surveying expedition to the Staked Plains funded by the real estate team of E. M. Powell and Edward L. Gage. In later life, Grant lived in Portland, Maine.
