Research Notes
In the 1911 Ireland census there is a Robert Glasgow of Killycurragh, age 29, single -- and Robert Hugh was the only Robert Glasgow in the 1911 census of age 19 or thereabouts.
 1911 Ireland census (http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Tyrone/Oritor/Killycurragh/859410/) - Residents of a house 28 in Killycurragh (Oritor, Tyrone). Robert Glasgow(29, Presbyterian, farmer, single).
 
However, supposing the 1930 US census in sources to be correct, that rules out those two Roberts as being the same person, even though the other Robert also had a father named James !
