Hi,
I,ve been doing a little research . Jessie Lachlan mcknight of limetree cottage moffat was born 1827 and died 2nd april 1916 .She was the wife of James mcknight . They are buried in the cemetry of Eastern Necropolis , Gallowgate, Glasgow .Plot section 14 lair 49 .
Presumably it is the parents james mcknight and mary bell you are keen to trace , this would make them kicking around in the 1700 s where records are much scarcer . I,ll see what I can come up with .
Yes I remember miss lucy and maggie blyth of moffat , I was a child at the time when they lived in Eastgate.

Hi ,
I came across these names listed on an assignation for Limetree cottage eastgate, moffat where they lived . I will make further enquiries for you regarding these people but it is possible they were buried in the old section of the cemetry used today for burials . You have got me interested now .
