About Mary
Find a Grave memorial 93259804 is for Mary's husband John Glasgow, not Mary. Its memorial narrative explicitly states that Mary Cranmer Glasgow was buried beside John and their son in the old Nottingham Presbyterian churchyard before the identified graves were reinterred at West Nottingham Cemetery in 1960. The memorial is therefore a derivative source about Mary despite not being her own memorial. WT+ hint 572 is a false positive and the link should be retained with its scope stated clearly.
