Moray was the eldest son of Francis Stuart, 9th Earl of Murray, and his wife, Jean Gray, daughter of John Gray, 11th Lord Gray. The huge family estate embraced most of Morayshire, embracing towns such as Forres.

From around 1785 Moray lived at Moray House in Edinburgh, situated between Charlotte Square and the Water of Leith.[1]
