What the research found

Summary of the research

Overall conclusion

The corrected reading of Andrew Glasgow's 1597/8 testament does not support the current Andrew/Jonet parent pair. It names Elizat Stevinsoun as Andrew's wife, Robert as their son, and Marion, Janet and Isobel as Andrew's daughters. It does not name this John or Jonet Anderson. Because the cited dispositive clauses need not enumerate every child, John's omission is not by itself a direct contradiction; the relationship is instead an unproved Lothian-cluster hypothesis.

Identity and family

Relationship assessment

Andrew-3163 as father: possible Lothian-cluster hypothesis, unsupported.
Anderson-103463 as mother: unsupported and based on a testament misreading.
The profile's birth year and place are estimated from adult activity rather than a birth record.
A proposed one-generation-lower placement through supposed sons James, Andrew or William must be withdrawn; the corrected testament proves no such sons.
The potential duplicate with Glasgow-3608 remains a separate identity review and cannot be decided from Andrew's testament.

'''⚠️ Paleographic Warning:'''

This profile is based on a testament written in 16th-century Secretary Hand. Due to the ornate and inconsistent handwriting style, all names, places, and relationships should be considered '''tentative''' and subject to '''revision''' pending further document comparison or corroboration. Interpretations are paleographically informed but speculative.

== Biography ==  
'''John Glasgow''' was born about 1590, likely in Linlithgowshire, Scotland. This estimate is based on the 1613 baptism of his daughter, [[Glasgow-3055|Jean Glasgow (bef.1613–)]]<ref>https://www.familysearch.org/tree/person/sources/MG7J-6GM</ref>.

He appears in multiple parish records as the father of children baptized in the town of Linlithgow between 1613 and 1622, suggesting he resided there for at least a decade and was part of the established Glasgow family in the area.

=== Children ===  
The following children are documented in the ''Scotland Births and Baptisms, 1564–1950'' database, all born in Linlithgow, Linlithgowshire:

* '''Jean Glasgow''' – christened 17 July 1613<ref>https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:X1RX-HPB</ref>  
* '''John Glasgow''' – christened 14 September 1617<ref>https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:X1RV-T8R</ref>  
* '''George Glasgow''' – christened 20 January 1622<ref>https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:X1RN-XV7</ref>  

== Research Notes ==

* The geographic setting (Linlithgowshire) and naming patterns suggest possible descent from [[Glasgow-1099|George Glasgow (abt.1580–)]] or [[Glasgow-1168|James Glasgow (abt.1540–1580)]], both associated with the greater Lanarkshire–Ayrshire–Lothian area.
* His son may have been [[Glasgow-991|James Glasgow (abt.1585–)]], also later found in Linlithgow.
* [[Glasgow-1103|Thomas Glasgow (1612–abt.1675)]], whose records also place him in the region, may be another child of John, though further documentation is needed.
* The surname in these records appears as ''Glesgow'', a common early spelling variation.


=== Parentage and generation ===
[[Glasgow-3163|Andrew Glasgow]]'s operative 1598 testament expressly names four children—Marioune, James, Andrew, and William—but does not name John.<ref>National Records of Scotland, Edinburgh Commissary Court, testament of Andrew Glasgow, CC8/8/32; printed index: [https://archive.org/details/scottishrecordso01scotuoft/page/n117/mode/1up ''Scottish Record Society'', p. 108].</ref> John was alive and parenting children in Linlithgow from 1613 to 1622, so this omission conflicts with treating him as Andrew's proved direct son.

The existing links to Andrew and [[Anderson-103463|Jonet Anderson]] are retained as '''uncertain working parents''', not as proved relationships. The Lothian geography could instead place John one generation lower or on a collateral line through one of Andrew's documented sons, but the evidence does not identify an exact parent. [[Glasgow-3608|John Glasgow]] is also an unproved same-name duplicate candidate; no merge is proposed.

Research notes as originally written

Current conclusion

John was the father named in Linlithgow baptisms for Jean in 1613, John in 1617
and George in 1622. Those indexes do not identify his parents.

The corrected reading of Andrew Glasgow's 1597/8 testament does not support the
current Andrew/Jonet parent pair. It names Elizat Stevinsoun as Andrew's wife,
Robert as their son, and Marion, Janet and Isobel as Andrew's daughters. It does
not name this John or Jonet Anderson. Because the cited dispositive clauses need
not enumerate every child, John's omission is not by itself a direct
contradiction; the relationship is instead an unproved Lothian-cluster
hypothesis.

Relationship assessment

- Andrew-3163 as father: **possible Lothian-cluster hypothesis, unsupported**.
- Anderson-103463 as mother: **unsupported and based on a testament misreading**.
- The profile's birth year and place are estimated from adult activity rather
  than a birth record.
- A proposed one-generation-lower placement through supposed sons James,
  Andrew or William must be withdrawn; the corrected testament proves no such
  sons.
- The potential duplicate with Glasgow-3608 remains a separate identity review
  and cannot be decided from Andrew's testament.
