What the research found

Summary of the research

Overall conclusion

Her father is the Edinburgh weaver who requires a new profile from the post-merge draft. The former Glasgow-3098 now redirects to Glasgow-1150. The 1641 apprentice register proves that man was son of Robert of Wester Duddingston, so he is not the separate Inveresk child Glasgow-1150. Move Marion's structured father from Glasgow-1150 to the replacement profile after it is created.

Conclusion

Marion's parentage and marriage are now directly supported. She was a daughter
of **James Glasgow, weaver and burgess of Edinburgh**, and married **William
Calder on 29 June 1686**. William's burgess admission the next day states the
relationship explicitly.

Her father is the Edinburgh weaver who requires a new profile from the
[post-merge draft](../Glasgow-1150/1641_Scotland_Edinburgh_James_Glasgow.md).
The former Glasgow-3098 now redirects to Glasgow-1150. The 1641 apprentice
register proves that man was son of Robert of Wester Duddingston, so he is not
the separate Inveresk child Glasgow-1150. Move Marion's structured father from
Glasgow-1150 to the replacement profile after it is created.
