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.

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.

Perhaps around the early 1830s, he moved to St. John, New Brunswick, or perhaps Nova Scotia -- his eldest son Hugh Adam was born at St. John in about 1835.
He passed away 30 November 1899 age 94, due to old age, and was buried at Cedar Hill Cemetery.

He was one of the oldest residents of Carleton, and had lived there for over 60 years. He left three sons: H. Adams (superintendent of Carleton ferry), Edwin, and Albert who was in business in Denver, CO; and two daughters Mrs M. Turner and Mrs. Anthony Atchison.

== Research Notes ==
Some ancestry-com trees have a Hugh Glasgow d. 1900 age 65 at Carleton, as father of Margaret wife of Alonzo Calder. This would be at odds with the newspaper notice, so perhaps those profile have made mistakes.
=== Passenger list ===
There is a passenger list of the ''Amethyst'' arriving in Boston in 1843 from St. George, New Brunswick, carrying a group of four Glasgows: Francis (36), Hugh (35), Mary (19), and Ellen (18). They were said to be emigrating to the U.S. This could well be the same family?

His daughters Margaret and H. Adam both give New Brunswick as their birthplace on censuses, although perhaps we should not rule out that they were born in Ireland prior to emigration.
=== Wives and children ===
Elizabeth Black was given as the mother on his children Ada and Edwin's death registrations. But based on her age, she probably was not the mother of H. Adam and Margaret .
He could possibly be the father of [[Glasgow-1180|Sarah (Glasgow) Kermode (abt.1826-1894)]] too ? Sarah Kermode named her parents as Hugh and Margaret, and appears to be from Gortin, Derryloran.
There are some confirmations of Glasgow children of Gortin in the Derryloran parish register, including William (b. abt. 1822), Sally (abt. 1827) and Margaret (abt. 1830). These may or may not be Hugh's children; see [[Glasgow-2539|John Glasgow (bef.1771-)]] research notes for more detail.
