Summary of the research

Newspaper identity review, 6 October 2026

Freeman’s Journal and Daily Commercial Advertiser, 1837-01-21, p.2: George Mark Glasgow, 1st Lieutenant (Royal Artillery) (promoted Second Captain, vice Freer (Office of Ordnance, 16 Jan 1837)) — probable match. Full name 'George Mark Glasgow' is unique in WikiTree and the record set, and the office agrees: Glasgow-3127's biography quotes a printed county-families entry 'Madeline, dau. of the late George Mark Glasgow, Esq., Capt. R.A.' (m. George Nevile of Stubton 1846), i.e. he reached captain's rank in the Royal Artillery, which this 1837 promotion supplies; Askwith's RA officer list indexes a 'Glasgow, G. M.'. Glasgow-3785 (George Mark Glasgow, b. 15 Feb 1795 Quebec, d. 6 Jan 1851 Kingston, Canada West; death-duty index 1851) is almost certainly the same man: same rare full name, and a Quebec birth fits a son of Lt-Gen George Glasgow RA, eight of whose nine children were born in Canada (DCB). 3127's 'died before 1846' rests on reading 'the late' in a later publication as if it applied in 1846 - not a real conflict.

M.'; Glasgow-3785 (b. Quebec 1795, d. Kingston 1851) probably the same man; Glasgow-1536 unlikely.

Identity and family

Identity assessment — military newspapers, 4 October 2026

Glasgow-3127 is a strong compatible Royal Artillery candidate: its live biography says Captain, father of Madeline and deceased by 1846, but its Sources section is empty. Glasgow-3785 (1795 Quebec–1851 Kingston) remains an exact-name chronology comparison without a military bridge. Glasgow-1536 (Barony birth/baptism 26 October 1804) is an explicitly linked weaker comparison in 3127; the newspaper supplies no parentage bridge. The 1833 Clement Stuart christening and 1851 death-duty citations on 3785, and the 1846 late-father claim on 3127, need underlying originals before reconciling these profiles. The senior 1819 George is not assigned to this younger officer.

A Belfast News-Letter list headed Office of Ordnance, 16 January 1837, published 24 January, names First Lieutenant George Mark Glasgow appointed a Second Captain, vice Freer; the following line names George Carter Evelegh as First Lieutenant, vice Glasgow. This is compatible with the Glasgow-3127 candidate's previously reviewed Captain biography, but does not identify the profile; its source section was empty at the prior review. No birthplace, Irish origin/residence, or family relationship follows from this notice. Belfast News-Letter, 24 January 1837, p. 1.

Complete source readings and held identity draft. No family relationship is changed.

Relationship assessment — newspaper identity review, 6 October 2026

Glasgow-3127 — same person as (duplicate) — Glasgow-3785: research note only (WikiTree now: not linked; Glasgow-3127 has no relatives, only a note that it may equal Glasgow-1536). Both profiles are Capt. George Mark Glasgow RA. Glasgow-3127's death before 1846 is a misreading of Walford's 'the late' (written 1860 or later). A merge review is proposed. Madeline (m. 1846 George Nevile of Stubton, 'dau. of ... George Mark Glasgow, Esq., Capt. R.A.') would then be a daughter of Glasgow-3785. (Freeman’s Journal and Daily Commercial Advertiser, 1825-02-16, p.3)

Identity assessment — newspaper candidates withdrawn, 6 October 2026

The Waterford Mirror, 1825-02-14, p.3: no longer a candidate for this profile. Feb 1825 reprint of the War Office notice: First Lieutenant George Mark Glasgow, Royal Artillery, from half pay. Glasgow-3785 (b. Quebec 1795, d. Kingston 1851) and Glasgow-3127 (Captain RA, d. by 1846) both fit and may be duplicates; the Quebec birth suggests he was a son of Lt-Gen George Glasgow RA, but nothing proves it.

== Biography ==
George Mark Glasgow, Esq. was likely born between 1790 and 1805 in the British Isles—possibly in England or Ireland. He served as a captain in the Royal Artillery, where he appears to have held a reputable position.

George married and had at least one daughter, Madeline Glasgow. By 1846, he had died (records call him “the late George Mark Glasgow”), and Madeline married George Nevile, Esq., of Stubton, Lincolnshire. Her advantageous marriage into the Nevile family—prominent in Lincolnshire—suggests George Mark Glasgow moved in higher social or military circles. Specific details about his career, personal life, and exact death information remain unknown.

== Research Notes ==
George Nevile, Esq. (b. 1822), the husband of Madeline Glasgow, was the youngest son of Rev. Henry William Nevile (Rector of Cottesmore, Rutland) and Amelia Mann of Hallow Park, near Worcester. He served as:
* High Sheriff of Lincolnshire (1858)  
* Justice of the Peace (J.P.)  
* Deputy Lieutenant (D.L.)  

Nevile inherited estates from Sir Robert Heron, 2nd Baronet (ext.), indicating deep family connections in both Lincolnshire and Nottinghamshire. This highlights that Madeline’s family—through her father, Capt. George Mark Glasgow—was linked to notable landowning and clerical families in the region.

Identity assessment — military newspapers, 4 October 2026

Glasgow-3127 is a strong compatible Royal Artillery candidate: its live biography says Captain, father of Madeline and deceased by 1846, but its Sources section is empty. Glasgow-3785 (1795 Quebec–1851 Kingston) remains an exact-name chronology comparison without a military bridge. Glasgow-1536 (Barony birth/baptism 26 October 1804) is an explicitly linked weaker comparison in 3127; the newspaper supplies no parentage bridge. The 1833 Clement Stuart christening and 1851 death-duty citations on 3785, and the 1846 late-father claim on 3127, need underlying originals before reconciling these profiles. The senior 1819 George is not assigned to this younger officer.

A Belfast News-Letter list headed Office of Ordnance, 16 January 1837, published 24 January, names First Lieutenant George Mark Glasgow appointed a Second Captain, vice Freer; the following line names George Carter Evelegh as First Lieutenant, vice Glasgow. This is compatible with the Glasgow-3127 candidate's previously reviewed Captain biography, but does not identify the profile; its source section was empty at the prior review. No birthplace, Irish origin/residence, or family relationship follows from this notice. [Belfast News-Letter, 24 January 1837, p. 1](https://www.newspapers.com/image/390543080/).

R.A.' (m. George Nevile of Stubton 1846), i.e. he reached captain's rank in the Royal Artillery, which this 1837 promotion supplies; Askwith's RA officer list indexes a 'Glasgow, G. M.'. Glasgow-3785 (George Mark Glasgow, b. 15 Feb 1795 Quebec, d. 6 Jan 1851 Kingston, Canada West; death-duty index 1851) is almost certainly the same man: same rare full name, and a Quebec birth fits a son of Lt-Gen George Glasgow RA, eight of whose nine children were born in Canada (DCB). 3127's 'died before 1846' rests on reading 'the late' in a later publication as if it applied in 1846 - not a real conflict.

Relationship assessment — newspaper identity review, 6 October 2026

- Glasgow-3127 — same person as (duplicate) — Glasgow-3785: **research note only** (WikiTree now: not linked; Glasgow-3127 has no relatives, only a note that it may equal Glasgow-1536). Both profiles are Capt. George Mark Glasgow RA. Glasgow-3127's death before 1846 is a misreading of Walford's 'the late' (written 1860 or later). A merge review is proposed. Madeline (m. 1846 George Nevile of Stubton, 'dau. of ... George Mark Glasgow, Esq., Capt. R.A.') would then be a daughter of Glasgow-3785.

### Newspaper identity review — 6 October 2026

- First Lieutenant, Royal Artillery, promoted Second Captain vice Freer by Office of Ordnance order dated 16 January 1837 (George Carter Evelegh succeeding him as First Lieutenant). — Freeman's Journal, 21 January 1837 (newspapers.com image 1050121684) ([Freeman’s Journal and Daily Commercial Advertiser, 1837-01-21, p.2](https://www.newspapers.com/image/1050121684/))
- Research note: Glasgow-3785 (George Mark Glasgow, 1795 Quebec - 1851 Kingston, Canada West) is very probably the same man; the 'died before 1846' estimate on 3127 comes from 'the late' in a later county-families book and should be reconsidered; a merge review is warranted. — WikiTree Glasgow-3127 and Glasgow-3785 biographies; DCB biography of Lt-Gen George Glasgow ([Freeman’s Journal and Daily Commercial Advertiser, 1837-01-21, p.2](https://www.newspapers.com/image/1050121684/))

Identity assessment — newspaper candidates withdrawn, 6 October 2026

- [The Waterford Mirror, 1825-02-14, p.3](https://www.newspapers.com/image/60324711/): no longer a candidate for this profile. Feb 1825 reprint of the War Office notice: First Lieutenant George Mark Glasgow, Royal Artillery, from half pay. Glasgow-3785 (b. Quebec 1795, d. Kingston 1851) and Glasgow-3127 (Captain RA, d. by 1846) both fit and may be duplicates; the Quebec birth suggests he was a son of Lt-Gen George Glasgow RA, but nothing proves it.
