I would recommend using a BindingSource, here is an excellent article about it: A Detailed Data Binding Tutorial[^]

example (quote):

BindingSource bs = new BindingSource();                              //**

private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    bs.DataSource = typeof(Airplane);                                //**
    bs.Add(new Airplane("Boeing 747", 800));
    bs.Add(new Airplane("Airbus A380", 1023));
    bs.Add(new Airplane("Cessna 162", 67));

    grid.DataSource = bs;                                            //**
    grid.AutoGenerateColumns = true; // create columns automatically //**
    txtModel.DataBindings.Add("Text", bs, "Model");                  //**
}

Here a class is used, but you probably want to use a List<> which is perfectly possible.
To save your class or List, you could use serialization.

It is unclear what format the data is in so here is an example for you:

XML

<dataset>
  <employee>
    <name>Fred</name>
  </employee>
</dataset>

And the code to load & save...

C#

private void Load()
{
    string path = @".\dataset.xml";
    DataSet ds = new DataSet();
    ds.ReadXml(path);
    dataGridView1.DataSource = ds;
    dataGridView1.DataMember = "employee";
}

private void Save()
{
    string path = @".\dataset.xml";
    DataSet ds = (DataSet) dataGridView1.DataSource;
    ds.WriteXml(path);
}
