The Grants emigrated to the United States in 1878 with their sons Tom and Robert, Jr. to join some of Margaret's family members in Wyoming. They established a 160-acre (65 ha) homestead, which they sold in 1884. Their new home became the Grant Ranch. After establishing an irrigation system the family built a permanent house in 1890. After 1900 Margaret and Robert retired to Wheatland, and the ranch was taken over by their daughter Clara and son Duncan, both born after the move to Wyoming. After marrying, Duncan took over ranch operations and was eventually joined by son Robert Grant III.
