About George

The record has now been recovered. The original St John, Dublin register says that George Glasgow was buried in the church on 22 December 1676. The entry supplies no age, address, occupation or relative. The profile's estimated 1600 birth remains unsupported, and the burial does not connect George to the later Dublin watchmakers or any Ulster cluster.

Questions the records have not yet answered, suggested next searches and suggested corrections.

WikiTree recommendations

Replace the unsupported 1600 birth with born before 22 December 1676 or leave the birth blank; birthplace unknown.
Record burial on 22 December 1676 at St John, Dublin.
Use death on or before 22 December 1676, not necessarily that exact day.
Infer no status, family or Dublin-watchmaker relationship from burial inside the church.

Suggested edit summary: Add the recovered St John burial and remove the unsupported 1600 birth.

Recommended correction applied

Verified live 19 August 2026: the unsupported 1600 birth was replaced by before 22 December 1676, and death is bounded as before 23 December 1676 so that death on the burial day remains possible. Unsupported birth and death places were cleared and marked uncertain. No validation warning was overridden.

Recommended correction following location audit

Retain or restore County Dublin, Ireland as the uncertain death location. George was buried at St John, Dublin, on 22 December 1676, so the county is a plausible death location and is not contradicted by the reviewed evidence.

Current conclusion

The record has now been recovered. The original St John, Dublin register says
that **George Glasgow was buried in the church on 22 December 1676**. The entry
supplies no age, address, occupation or relative. The profile's estimated 1600
birth remains unsupported, and the burial does not connect George to the later
Dublin watchmakers or any Ulster cluster.
