Meaning of surname McKnight
(One paragraph from the above web page)
"About the middle of the fifteen hundreds the MacKnight Family, which had been
a Sept under Clan MacNaughton since the early twelve hundreds, met all
regulations and requirements (four generations of ancestors who had been good
citizens loyal and true to Clan and Country) the Chieftain of the fifth
generation was eligible to apply to the Lord Lyon King of Arms at Edinburgh
for matriculation as a separate clan. When all credentials were accounted by
the Court of the Lord Lyon King of Arms, they were registered in Court
Records - and so - was born Clan MacKnight."
