Grant, William Lawson, 1872-1935 : William Lawson Grant was born 2 November 1872 at Halifax, Nova Scotia, the son of George Monro Grant, Principal of Queen's University, and Jessie Lawson. Grant studied at Queen's University and at Balliol College, Oxford, receiving a Bachelor of Arts from Oxford in 1898. He then embarked on a career in education, teaching at Upper Canada College and St. Andrew's College in Toronto from 1898 to 1904. He taught colonial history at Oxford (1906-1910) and Queen's University (1910-1915). During the First World War, he served in the Canadian Expeditionary Force overseas in France where he was wounded in 1916.

Grant became headmaster of Upper Canada College in 1917, and remained in this position until his death on 3 February 1935 in Toronto. He was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada in 1911. He wrote or edited several historical works, including a biography of his father, "Principal Grant" (1904); "The Voyages of Samuel de Champlain" (1907); Lescarbot's "History of New France" (1907-1914); "Canadian Constitutional Development" (1908); "Acts of the Privy Council, Colonial Series" (1907-1910); "The Ontario High School History of Canada" (1914); and "The Tribune of Nova Scotia: A Chronicle of Joseph Howe" (1915).
