Neither the place nor the date of the birth of John Knox, the Reformer, is settled beyond dispute; but the weightiest considerations favour Giffordgate, a suburb of the town of Haddington (16 miles east of Edinburgh) as the place, and 1513 or 1514 as the year. (Another favored year of birth is 1505.)
