Douglases of Grangemuir

Grangemuir House was the seat of a junior branch of the Douglas family in Scotland.〔(A useful graphical tree from douglashistory.co.uk depicting the branch )〕 The house and attached estate was bought by Walter Irvine, a Scot who owned sugar estates in Tobago and Luddington House in Surrey.〔(The Scottish Jurist, House of Lords, 1838. p.521 )〕 It then passed to Irvine's daughter, Elizabeth, and her husband, Lord William Robert Keith Douglas, the fourth son of Sir James Douglas, 4th Baronet of Kelhead and younger brother of both Charles Douglas, 6th Marquess of Queensberry and John Douglas, 7th Marquess of Queensberry. Grangemuir House is located just north of Pittenweem in Fife, Scotland and is now sitting within (Grangemuir Woodland Chalet Park ).
The house was of French design and was constructed as a hunting lodge for the family in the 18th century. The building was clad in the 1970s with pebbledashed concrete as a cheap way of excluding damp. Members of this branch of the Douglas family usually matriculated their arms with the mottos ''Jamais Arrière'' or ''Forward''.
However, in 1979, the previous head of the family, Walter Francis Edward Douglas (1917–2013), was granted permission by the Lord Lyon to matriculate his arms with the motto ''Tendir and Trewe'', as taken from the 15th century poem ''The Buke of the Howlat'', by Sir Richard Holland, chaplain to Archibald Douglas, Earl of Moray:
''O Douglas, O Douglas!''
''Tendir and trewe''

==Heirs==
Walter Francis Edward Douglas' son, the current oldest member of this clan, is Francis Gustave
Douglas, BSc, MA, PhD. Grad. Cert Ed. (born 1946), Professor Emeritus, University College Cork who lives in Cork, Ireland; his heir apparent is his son
