Not reading the whole thread. But if you do in fact have a receptacle fed from 2 breakers they just so happen to be on the same phase in the panel. What I would do to find those circuits is:
1- Turn off the main so we know it actually kills power to the whole home.
2- Turn the main back on, then turn each breaker off and leave it off until the lights go off.
3- Leave the breaker that killed the lights off, then start turning the other breakers you had off to on.
4- If it's double fed it'll come on at some point.
5- If and when it comes back on, you will have to cap off one or the other in the panel or find where they crossover, which will be expensive.
6- Good luck.
