| This source is a primary source: | No |
| Best certainty: | probably |
| Notes: | Be aware that this book contains a lot of errors. It seems that some of the genealogies were collected from the families and not verified against primary sources. But other genealogies as well contains several errors, especially in the older generations. Some of these seems like pure fantasy. Grant later published an updated version of the book, called "Zetland Family Histories". |
