James Glasgow

Biography
James Glasgow was a Protestant householder at Corvanaghan in Kildress parish, County Tyrone, in 1766. National Archives of Ireland, Parliamentary Return 667, 1766 religious census for Kildress, IHP/1/667, Virtual Treasury catalogue and original return (https://virtualtreasury.ie/item/NAI-IHP-1-667); RCB Library MS 23 transcript, p. 176 (https://by2022-prod.adaptcentre.ie/loris/RCBL_23_176.JPG/full/full/0/default.jpg). The return gives no age, spouse, children, occupation or later history. His birth is known only to have occurred before the return was compiled.
Research NotesPossible duplicates
James is the strongest currently documented local candidate for James Glasgow of Moneymore, the reported father of Robert Glasgow. Corvanaghan is about nine miles west of Moneymore, and no later Irish record has yet been identified for this householder. No source connects him to Mary Harkness, Robert, Arthur, Joseph, emigration about 1766–1770 or the 1804 Pennsylvania naturalisation entry.

Glasgow-2988 may represent this same householder, but its estimated birth and attached family relationships are not established by the 1766 return.

The 1826 Kildress tithe list names David and John Glasgow at Muntober, John at Whitehill and William at Oritor, but no Glasgow occupier at Corvanaghan. Kildress Parish Tithe Applotment transcription, 1826 (https://www.irishgenealogyhub.com/tyrone/tithe-applotment-books/parish-of-kildress.php). This later absence does not prove that the 1766 householder emigrated.
Kildress return
The 1766 Kildress religious return names James Glasgow at Corvanaghan and Sam Glasgo at Whitehill. This profile represents the James occurrence; the return gives no age, wife, children or relationship to Samuel. National Archives of Ireland, IHP/1/667, Kildress religious return, 1766 (https://virtualtreasury.ie/item/NAI-IHP-1-667).
