Biography

Gilbert or Gilibertus de Glascu entered Dublin's merchant guild before 1222/23 and paid eight shillings.^[1]

The roll's place index identifies Glascu with Glasgow in Scotland and lists Gloucester separately. The entry gives no family relationship, occupation beyond guild context or later history.

Research Notes

No record states that Gilbert was related to the earlier Dublin entrants Richard and Robert de Glasgu. The repeated admission payment is not kinship evidence.
