Lord Graham, chief of the Clan, had been created Earl of Montrose in 1504 but had died with the rest of the Scottish nobility around their king James IV on Flodden field in 1513.

Defendants in error contend that they were entitled under their agreement with Graham to receive one-half of whatever Graham obtained by the agreement with the Superior Oil Corporation, to the extent of their interest in the land.

When the British Graham Land Expedition (BGLE) was planned in 1933 Graham Land was believed to be the largest of a group of islands lying to the North-West of the Antarctic mainland and separated from it by three channels, the main one of which was the Stefansson Strait.
A major discovery of BGLE was that the channels (reported after the pioneering flights of Wilkins and Ellsworth) between the Bellinghausen and Weddell Seas did not, in fact, exist.
Thus, Graham Land was a peninsula and not an archipelago.
