About Sarah

This profile is George Glasgow's wife Sarah in Glenleslie household 20, not the different Sarah Alexander recorded as a visitor in John and Rose Glasgow's household 21. Do not add the visitor's age, status or household to this profile. Do not detach George or their children: household 20 directly records the couple and five children together.

Source Finding Assessment
Macafee/Scott Kilconway transcription, Glenleslie households 20–21 House 20 contains George Glasgow, 36, his wife Sarah, 40, and children William, Thomas, Mary, George and Adam. House 21 contains John and Rose Glasgow and a separate Sarah Alexander, visitor, 34. The two Sarahs are different people in adjacent households.
Detailed 1851 Irish census transcription, Glenleslie, pp. 103–104 Preserves the household distinction and the visitor's separate age and status. Confirms that the visitor evidence cannot be transferred to Alexander-22579.

Still open

Questions the records have not yet answered, suggested next searches and suggested corrections.

Recommended correction

No live profile edit is required from the visitor entry. Preserve Alexander-22579's populated marriage and child relationships. Remove or correct only research text that identifies her as John and Rose's 34-year-old visitor. The unlinked visitor has a separate HOLD handoff.

Current conclusion

This profile is George Glasgow's wife Sarah in Glenleslie household 20, not
the different Sarah Alexander recorded as a visitor in John and Rose Glasgow's
household 21. Do not add the visitor's age, status or household to this profile.
Do not detach George or their children: household 20 directly records the
couple and five children together.
