About Hew
Robert Glasgow (Glasgow-1078) is not presently a reliable father candidate. Hew is documented at Kilwinning by his 1676 marriage and his children's 1676 and 1678 baptisms. Robert belongs to a Glasgow-city family and is promoted chiefly through John Glasgow M.A. (Glasgow-1073), whose combined local data currently contain two competing fathers: Glasgow-1078 and John Glasgow (Glasgow-1604).

What the records show
Source findings
| Source | Finding | Assessment |
|---|---|---|
| Kilwinning marriage record, 24 May 1676, parish 599, FR34 | Records Hew Glasgow and Margaret Lachland at Kilwinning. | Direct locality evidence for Hew's adult household. |
| Hew child baptism, FamilySearch XTVY-FQ2 and Robert's 1678 Kilwinning baptism | Records Hew's children at Kilwinning. | Does not connect him to Glasgow-1078. |
| Live relationship data for Glasgow-1073 | The apparent sibling bridge contains competing same-role parents. | Tree conflict; unusable as positive parentage evidence until resolved. |
Still open
Questions the records have not yet answered, suggested next searches and suggested corrections.
Recommended action
Resolve Glasgow-1073's father before using him as a sibling bridge. Treat the Robert candidate as weak unless a record connects the Glasgow/Kilwaughter and Kilwinning households.
