Identity and family

Identity assessment — Irvine/London sailor

Do not add a 3 February 1733 sailor event. Findmypast row GBOR/DOBSON/013379 is misaligned: the printed Edinburgh testament index gives Hugh Glasgow, sometime sailor in Irvine and thereafter in London, the date 12 March 1751; 3 February 1733 belongs to the following James Glasgow entry. Separate Findmypast mariner and testament records confirm the 1751 date. See the source-correction dossier.

Hugh Glasgow remains an exact-Irvine, viable-age candidate, but the testament names no age, parent, spouse, vessel, executor or address. Other viable Hugh profiles prevent a safe assignment.
