The connection between this Johannis and the Uchtred who was alive in the time of King James II has so far been found only in BIFR1976. At least one of the other sources suggests that this connection has not been fully proved. | |||||||||||||||

MacFarlane inserts here another generation, an Uchtred Knox who married Janet Fleming of the family of Barrochar. BIFR1976 shows such a Janet as wife of the following Uchtred's brother George rather than his mother. We follow BIFR1976 not least because Crawfurd confirms that Janet Fleming's husband was George. | |||||||||||||||

BIFR1976 confirms that, although some sources have suggested that this John was the famous Reformer, he was not. | |||||||||||||||
ii | William Knox minister of Cockpen had issue | ||||||||||||||
The exact connectio of John Knox, the famous preacher and church reformer, with this family has yet to be established. Crawfurd says he was "a grandnephew of this family" which means his grandfather was a younger brother of one of the lairds. If so, he may fit in here his grandfather may even have been the above George. This connection has not been confirmed. | |||||||||||||||
