I think you will find that the scottish Greigs changed their name from McGreggor when the English decided to try and kill them all.
There was a price on any McGreggors head so many peope changed there name to Greig, Greer, Gregg ectRemember they couldn't spell very well so there are a few different spellings.
Hope this is helpfull
