"Uctred son of Liulf was the father of Eschina de Molle, who married Walter son of Alan, the first Stewart. She gave a ploughgate in Molle to the Abbey of Paisley, where her daughter Margaret was buried, and land to the Abbey of Kelso, where another daughter was buried. The Stewarts continued to have an interest in Molle until about A.D. 1236 (Liber de Melros, 134, 261 and 262). Mr. Morton (Monastic Annals of Teviotdale, p. 118) has a long note on Molle and its owners."^[3]
