A quick BNA search reveals that there was (is?) a Garngad Road in Glasgow.

I agree with Garngad.

I didn't read all of this link, but it might help place it:

Thank you all so much - this is all really interesting.

So I am guessing my 3xGreat Grandfather, Daniel Knight, who this relates to, must have worked for James Turner as it does also state Thrushgrove on the death record.

Many thanks indeed! Sounds like he was in the thick of it as he didn't die until 1863, aged 48.

Any idea what the first name of the son is? It's an abbreviation and I am not sure if it is James
