How parent leads are calculated

Automated leads use birth surnames—not married surnames—as parental eligibility, role-specific biological age limits, bounded and approximate-date uncertainty, household chronology, specific time-aware localities, mapped distance, tenancy succession, migration destinations and sex-aware Scottish naming positions across generations. People already attached as the subject's parents stay in the identity summary and are excluded from this alternative-candidate list, regardless of relationship confidence. The main calibration uses clues available on disconnected profiles; existing parent and sibling links are retained as comparison context rather than treated as transferable evidence. Common ordered names and grandparent-to-child echoes receive a small non-zero weight, so a John or James match can support several independent criteria without producing a lead alone. Rare names, repeated bearers and bundles across otherwise distinct branches receive substantially more weight according to catalogue frequency. An exact migration place is weighted by its rarity and repetition across both branches; a shared destination country is worth only one point. Extra weight is added only when at least three independent clue types converge: naming, locality, specific migration, household chronology or collateral networks. Sparse profiles retain a clearly labelled chronology-only fallback instead of disappearing. Countries, states, counties and research clusters do not count as a shared locality, and fallback, broad representative or kin-inferred coordinates are excluded from distance scoring. Shared descendant profiles are removed before branch-name comparison. A candidate already recorded as a parent-in-law is excluded. A confident or independently supported parent is treated as settled; uncertain and unassessed attachments remain open to alternative comparison. A different linked parent, an uncle/aunt or grandparent path, and a matching existing child profile prevent an alternative from being classified as a strong direct-parent lead until the underlying tree conflict or duplicate is resolved. Familiar forms such as Bessie are normalised. Surname remains an eligibility filter worth zero points.

Naming customs, shared farms and occupations are circumstantial. Children, spouses and collateral relatives may be missing, and tree-derived family networks are not independent evidence. Scores rank research leads; they do not prove parentage.

Current conclusion

Glasgow-1419 · updated 2026-08-13

Samuel John's original 1866 marriage proves that his father was Andrew Glasgow, a labourer. Andrew Glasgow-1050, the Glenleslie linen weaver who died in 1848, is the strongest local match and is chronologically capable of being Samuel's father. The relationship is probable rather than certain because the marriage does not state Andrew's residence.

The source currently linked from the WikiTree profile points to an unrelated 1870 birth. It should be supplemented, not deleted, with the correct original marriage image.

Biography
Samuel John Glasgow was born before about 1845 in County Antrim, Ireland.

He married Margaret Calagher on 21 August 1866 at Ballymoney. The original
register describes Samuel as a full-age bachelor and labourer and names his
father as Andrew Glasgow, labourer. Margaret was of full age and unmarried;
her father was James Calagher, labourer. General Register Office of Ireland, civil marriage register (https://www.irishgenealogy.ie/files/civil/marriage_returns/marriages_1866/11540/8244496.pdf), Samuel John Glasgow and Margaret Calagher, 21 August 1866. 
Research Notes
Andrew Glasgow is Samuel's strongest identified father
candidate. Andrew was a Glenleslie linen weaver born about 1818 and died in
1848. 1851 Irish Census Returns: detailed comma-delimited transcription (https://durrushistory.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/1851irishcensusreturnscommadelimitedtextfilejul24_071.pdf), Glenleslie household 21. The chronology and locality fit, but Samuel's marriage does not state Andrew's residence and no baptism has been found. Their relationship therefore remains uncertain.

The previously cited 1870 civil birth is not Samuel's marriage record and should
not be used as proof of his parentage. It is retained among the profile's earlier
research sources as the FamilySearch record FG82-Q36 (https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:FG82-Q36) and its IrishGenealogy.ie result page (https://www.irishgenealogy.ie/view/?record_id=f66be225e5-6432791), while the original marriage above provides the controlling evidence.
