Biography
Note
This information was assessed from the death certificate of daughter Jane. Also, Alan Cocks' notes refer to David Knox and Mina Burnet from the 9th edition of 1899 Burke's "Landed Gentry of Ireland" (page 238).
Presumably, David Knox was born, married and died at Hawick.
Also, Alan Cocks says the Christian name of Burnet was Isabella, but the death certificate of Jane (aka Jean) shows her mother's Christian name as Mina. It is highly probable that "Mina" was a family diminutive, and her 'formal' first name was Isabella.
