Summary of the research
Overall conclusion
FamilySearch VQ4K-H58 indexes Hellein Glasgow, 11 November 1652, under the
combined Kirknewton and East Calder label and names father William. It proves
a father of that name in the derivative entry but not which historical parish
contains it or identity with Glasgow-3515 or Glasgow-1087. Inspect the original
for residence, occupation, witnesses and manuscript spelling.

Newest first. Each addition adds to the summary above; it does not replace it.
OPR index comparison, 10 September 2026
The supplied 14/11/1652 Kirknewton and East Calder index date differs from the profile’s structured birth date 1652-11-11. The original register is needed to determine whether these describe separate birth and baptism dates or a transcription discrepancy. The existing possible marriage identity remains unproved.
