Jean (Cunningham) Glasgow

before 1674 – before March 1699

Kilbirnie, Ayrshire, Scotland

About Jean

Jean's marriage to John Glasgow (Glasgow-1073) is supported by a Kilbirnie parish marriage entry dated 14 January 1690. A published Ayrshire history describes her as a daughter of John Cuninghame of Wattieston, but that parentage remains derivative until the relevant original record is identified. An older project page also mis-associated this same profile with Robert Glasgow, M.D.; do not conflate the marriages.
