Janet was still alive on the 1st Aug 1750 when the inventory of her husband's estate was registered. There are two Janet / Jant King burials at Liberton, one 6 Oct 1750 and one 20 Jan 1774, and several Janet / Jant Wright burials there, and even if I view all the images there may be nothing to say which is the correct one.
