A quick definition of private grant:

A private grant is when someone gives another person the right to use or own something, like land or property, for their own personal use. This means they can sell it if they want to. It's different from a community grant, which is when the government gives land to a group of people to use together and they can't sell it. Private grants are often found in the history of land ownership in places that used to be owned by Spain or Mexico.

A more thorough explanation:

A private grant is a type of agreement that creates a right for an individual to use and sell real property. This is different from a community grant, which is given for communal use and cannot be sold. Private grants are often made by governments for land outside of the original 13 states, especially in former Spanish and Mexican possessions.

  • A government grants a private individual the right to use and sell a piece of land.
  • A private individual grants an easement to a neighbor to use a portion of their land for a driveway.

These examples illustrate how a private grant can create a right for an individual to use and sell real property, or to allow others to use a portion of their land for a specific purpose.
