Robert Grant (1778-1838)

Grant’s father was Charles Grant, Member of Parliament for Inverness, and East India Company director. His family moved from India to England when Robert was six years old. He attended Magdalene College at Cambridge (B.A. 1801, M.A. 1804), and became a lawyer in 1807. In 1818, he became a member of Parliament for Inverness. He became Privy Councilor in 1831, Judge Advocate General in 1832, and was knighted in 1834. He then returned to India to be Governor of Bombay. His work appeared in the Christian Observer (1806-1815), Elliott’s Psalms and Hymns (1835), and Sacred Poems, published posthumously by his brother in 1839, and reprinted in 1844 and 1868.
