About Margaret

This profile now preserves the separate, uncertain Canadian Winters-family identity. Its spouse Samuel Winters and four child links remain intact and uncertain, but Robert Glasgow-1367 and Catherine have been detached because the Irish evidence belongs to Glasgow-3955.

Summary of the research

Overall conclusion

Robert's 1851 will directly names his daughter Margaret Glasgow and her Young children. That woman was also unmarried in Robert's 1851 household and cannot be the same person as the wife of Samuel Winters. The approximate 1801 birth remains only a working estimate on this profile; her birthplace and parents are unknown.

Current conclusion

This profile now preserves the separate, uncertain Canadian Winters-family
identity. Its spouse Samuel Winters and four child links remain intact and
uncertain, but Robert `Glasgow-1367` and Catherine have been detached because
the Irish evidence belongs to `Glasgow-3955`.

Robert's 1851 will directly names his daughter Margaret Glasgow and her Young
children. That woman was also unmarried in Robert's 1851 household and cannot
be the same person as the wife of Samuel Winters. The approximate 1801 birth
remains only a working estimate on this profile; her birthplace and parents are
unknown.
