Alexander Glasgow

before 1603 – before 1700

Inveresk and Musselburgh, Midlothian, Scotland

About Alexander

The father relationship with James Glasgow is assessed as uncertain. The cited Musselburgh record identifies Alexander’s father as a James Glasgow, but does not establish that he was the attached Mid Calder James Glasgow-991; the profile itself distinguishes the local candidate.

What the records show

Source findings — Musselburgh sasines and Inveresk baptisms, 7 October 2026

The reviewed draft quotes sasine entries of 8 July 1624 and 11 July 1625 describing "Alexander, son of James Glasgow, tailor, burgess of Musselburgh, and his spouse Janet Clerk", citing only "National Records of Scotland". No register, volume or folio is given and the entries have not been located in this repository, so the wording is unverified. "His spouse" most likely refers to Alexander rather than James (inference): the 1637 baptism names Jannet Clerk as the mother of Alexander's son, and Glasgow-1150's findings treat her as Alexander's wife (Clerk-296).

Baptisms to Alexander Glasgow at Inveresk and Musselburgh (OPR 689), as listed in the draft: James, 19 March 1626 (OPR 689/10/154; this child is Glasgow-3923, not Glasgow-1150 as the draft says); Robert, 30 December 1627 (689/10/171); Marioune, 17 March 1630; John, 25 November 1632; Bessie, 22 March 1635; Allexander, 3 September 1637, mother Jannet Clerk. Seen as index entries. If the sasine wording is confirmed, it names Alexander's father as a Musselburgh tailor called James, which is why the attached Mid Calder James Glasgow (Glasgow-991) remains uncertain. Locate the sasine register entries before relying on the occupation.

Identity and family

Father relationship assessment — 28 September 2026

This is a review of existing evidence, not a newly discovered record. Attached father: James Glasgow. Assessment: uncertain.

Reason: The cited Musselburgh record identifies Alexander’s father as a James Glasgow, but does not establish that he was the attached Mid Calder James Glasgow-991; the profile itself distinguishes the local candidate.

Source summary: Existing Musselburgh sasine account, 1624–25; cross-record father identity unresolved. Saved on WikiTree and verified in the live edit form on 28 September 2026; only the father certainty and its explanation were updated.

The cited Musselburgh record identifies Alexander’s father as a James Glasgow, but does not establish that he was the attached Mid Calder James Glasgow-991; the profile itself distinguishes the local candidate.

Source findings — Musselburgh sasines and Inveresk baptisms, 7 October 2026

The reviewed draft quotes sasine entries of 8 July 1624 and 11 July 1625 describing "Alexander, son of James Glasgow, tailor, burgess of Musselburgh, and his spouse Janet Clerk", citing only "National Records of Scotland". No register, volume or folio is given and the entries have not been located in this repository, so the wording is unverified. "His spouse" most likely refers to Alexander rather than James (inference): the 1637 baptism names Jannet Clerk as the mother of Alexander's son, and [Glasgow-1150](https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Glasgow-1150)'s findings treat her as Alexander's wife ([Clerk-296](https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Clerk-296)).
