No named children are recoverable, so child-naming analysis cannot be run.

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.

No sufficiently similar same-name person is currently indexed.

How duplicate leads are calculated

Dates are eligibility gates, not merely deductions: chronologically impossible people are excluded. Dates, places, spouses, parent certainty and children's profiles and names are then compared. A high score is a prompt to inspect records, not a merge recommendation.

Biography
Sterling Perry Glasgow was born in January 8, 1889 in Peru, Nebraska. U.S., Social Security Death Index, 1935-2014 accessed at https://search.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/sse.dll?indiv=1&dbid=3693&h=22447768&ssrc=pt&tid=102838521&pid=230023171726 

He was the second child and first son of Sterling Glasgow and Harriett Peery. 

By 1910 the family had moved to Omaha. 1910 United States Federal Census for Omaha, Nebraska accessed at https://www.ancestry.com/imageviewer/collections/7884/images/31111_4330832-00014?pId=160852290 . 

In 1917 he had moved West to Salt Lake City, Utah where he was a Claims Clerk for American Express. His WWI Draft Registration noted that he had a mother dependent upon him (so perhaps Hattie was in Salt Lake City as well?). US World War I Draft Registration Cards for Sterling Perry Glasgow accessed at https://www.ancestry.com/imageviewer/collections/6482/images/005243497_00050?pId=34388858 

On June 27, 1918 in Farmington, Utah he married Estella Maria Whiting. Utah, U.S., Select Marriages, 1887-1966 accessed at https://search.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/sse.dll?indiv=1&dbid=60201&h=243355&ssrc=pt&tid=102838521&pid=230023171726 .

They ended up in Los Angeles where Estelle died on September 17, 1956. California, U.S., Death Index, 1940-1997 accessed at https://search.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/sse.dll?indiv=1&dbid=5180&h=2705423&ssrc=pt&tid=102838521&pid=230038972090 

On October 8, 1958 in Long Beach, California he married Marion Euphemia McIntyre Trask. California, U.S., Marriage Index, 1949-1959 accessed at https://www.ancestry.com/imageviewer/collections/5186/images/CA___MG958GIOMET-0?pId=21516147 

He died December 7, 1972 in Laguna Hills, California. U.S., Social Security Death Index, 1935-2014 accessed at https://search.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/sse.dll?indiv=1&dbid=3693&h=22447768&ssrc=pt&tid=102838521&pid=230023171726
