About Euphame

This is a genuine two-family conflation. FamilySearch X1Y9-V87 indexes Euphame in 1634 with father Johnne Glasgow. The same event is claimed in Glasgow-1030's biography as a child of John Glasgow and Jonet Mathie, while Euphame is structurally attached to Rev. John Glassford and Jonet Morriel within an otherwise coherent Edinburgh Glassford sibling sequence.

These research notes were last revised on 10 September 2026.

Summary of the research

Overall conclusion

The event's Edinburgh placement favours the Glassford household over the Glasgow High Kirk family, but the index surname favours Glasgow. The original parish image is required. It must not be attached to both families meanwhile.

The 1850-52 Euphemia Glasgow occurrence in the biography is more than two centuries later and unrelated.

What the records show

Source findingsSupplied OPR births and baptisms: row 115 — 10 September 2026

Scotland’s People, Old Parish Registers, births and baptisms; exact surname Glasgow through 1700, 127 supplied results. EUPHAME GLASGOW; indexed date 30/03/1634; Edinburgh; parish 685 / 1, reference 40 / 202. Parents/other exactly as indexed: JOHNNE GLASGOW/JONET MORIELL FR1037 (FR1037). Indexed gender: F.

Assessment: Matches the existing child-record account by indexed date, locality and recorded family. This row adds the complete index locator as supporting provenance; it does not establish a new event or relationship.

Original image not inspected for this batch. The combined collection’s date does not automatically establish a birthday. Names alone do not uniquely identify attached parents or connect a child with a later adult. An omitted parent or indexed gender U remains unspecified in this source.

Next action: No additional WikiTree update from this row; preserve any existing pending work.

Identity and family

Relationship correction - 20 August 2026

Euphame's former attachment to Rev. John Glasford of Kilwinning (Glassford-289) was caused by a conflation of two men.

Edinburgh's register records John Glassford, slater, marrying Janet or Jonet Murriell on 15 July 1619. The minister's wife is identified by Fasti as Jean Blair. Euphame and the other Edinburgh Glasford/Murriell children have therefore been moved to Glassfuird-2, with Morriel-1 retained as mother.

This assignment is well supported, but the original baptism image should still be inspected for the father's occupation, residence and witnesses.

Still open

Questions the records have not yet answered, suggested next searches and suggested corrections.

Recommended update
  1. Remove Jonet Mathie from the prose; structured mother Morriel-1 is the wife associated with the Glassford family.
  2. Remove the 1850-52 occurrence.
  3. Retain Glasfoord as an alternate surname; do not change LNAB until the original 1634 image is inspected.
  4. Remove Euphame from Glasgow-1030's child list unless the image instead proves that Glasgow/Mathie family.
  5. Keep the Glassford parents qualified as probable pending that review.

Conclusion

This is a genuine two-family conflation. FamilySearch X1Y9-V87 indexes Euphame
in 1634 with father `Johnne Glasgow`. The same event is claimed in
[Glasgow-1030](https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Glasgow-1030)'s biography as a
child of John Glasgow and Jonet Mathie, while Euphame is structurally attached
to Rev. [John Glassford](https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Glassford-289) and Jonet
Morriel within an otherwise coherent Edinburgh Glassford sibling sequence.

The event's Edinburgh placement favours the Glassford household over the
Glasgow High Kirk family, but the index surname favours Glasgow. The original
parish image is required. It must not be attached to both families meanwhile.

The 1850-52 Euphemia Glasgow occurrence in the biography is more than two
centuries later and unrelated.

Recommended update

1. Remove Jonet Mathie from the prose; structured mother Morriel-1 is the wife
   associated with the Glassford family.
2. Remove the 1850-52 occurrence.
3. Retain `Glasfoord` as an alternate surname; do not change LNAB until the
   original 1634 image is inspected.
4. Remove Euphame from Glasgow-1030's child list unless the image instead proves
   that Glasgow/Mathie family.
5. Keep the Glassford parents qualified as probable pending that review.
